I have a dream of hiking the Appalachian Trail once I retire. Now that I have the idea of getting a Class A RV upon retirement I'm thinking the two may work together.
We could move the RV from park to park as I hiked north, and if the trail crosses a road, dear wife could pick me up in the toad. She'll have to get better at map reading/GPS.......lol I wouldn't think that we would have to move the RV but maybe once a week at the most. Folks can drive a LOT further than they can hike. This way I could spend many nights in my own bed and wifey can do her exploring during the day while I'm hiking. I'm SURE that there will be multiple areas where I won't cross a road for a couple days. But I also envision many days where I wouldn't even have to carry a full pack, as I would be getting picked up. Being able to hike lighter mean more miles and less stress.
Given the number of RV parks, does this plan seem plausible? If so, I could get a VERY early start (like Jan) out of Springer Mt, GA and just stay in the RV during the colder snaps/snows.
Ahhh, to dream.
