Thinking about doing this huge feat. Im 21 live in omaha NE and want to leave may or june. But uncertain about doing it alone. I’m 21 and need to do something simply for myself. Ive been camping for 8 years now and backing packing for just 2. I know I can do this but just wondering if anyone else would like to as well.
Still not certain if i want to start in New york like so many people or somewhere else. But still plan to end up in San fransico.
If anyone is up for this and is serious about it send me an email at andrewsch21@yahoo.com 2 weeks ago
Early spring of 2014 me(17 from Michigan), Paul(same age from Scotland) and my cousin are gonna set out for the Appalachian Trail. My cousin only wants to go for the AT but me and Paul are going on. We have no time frame, just like Peter Jenkins in his must read book “A Walk Across America”. If you wanna join or plan in with me and Paul lemme know at soopaman66126@hotmail.com! 4 weeks ago
hey my name is Heidi and i live in New Orleans, LA. Im 23 years old and will be 24 in May. I’ve always wanted to do something spectacular with my life and never could think of a way to fulfill my desires. I want to find either an organization or charity that would sponsor me to walk across America. I am thinking from California to N. Carolina or Georgia. I’d much rather have a sponsor that knows our step by step trek just in case. I definitely do not want to do this alone. Having a couple girls or guys for protection, with a bigger group its less likely to get kidnapped or hurt. If anyone is interested in something like this please feel free to email me @ byrdheidi@aol.com.

Simply for a record here: I started walking from SF,CA on Feb.12th, and reached NY,NY on Sept.27th. States: CA,NV,AZ,NM,CO,KS,MO,IL,IN,OH,WV,PA,NJ,and NY. 3 months ago
I forgot to mention I am in California but I would be willing to start from the east coast. I want to send messages to other walkers but seem to be missing something? My email is leem@earthlink.net and my name is Lee. Send me message or email if you are interested in a group walk. I hear it is safe to do alone but I think the more the better for safety and fun.
I finally read the verification e-mail and it says in there that I need to wait “a while” before I can send messages. 3 months ago
Want to walk across America in a group
I would like to walk across the USA in a group of around four or more. I just started looking for a way to find just that a group. I wanted to average around 10 miles per day. At 10 miles per day it would take around 10 months to complete. I am also thinking about sleeping outside often. Showers when available like truck stops, camping grounds, and the motel room stays. It would also be fun to visit as many sightseeing locations as possible. I figured the whole thing could cost as low as $5000 then add cost to return plane bus or train. Just to be safe think $10000 which is what you might spend through the entire adventure. I understand a group means others will want to make some changes and decide where to go=) 3 months ago
I am ready to do this but family members are concerned because I would be doing it alone. Very discouraging. 4 months ago
I would really like to do this, but wouldn’t want to do it alone 4 months ago
i would love to do this adventure ,so if any body has any advice or tips plz let me know 5 months ago
I love walking and it occured to me the other day that it would be amazing to walk across America. I have been backpacking a bunch so I know I can handle the day in day out physical aspect of it. I just dont want to do this alone, lol. I know many people have, but I am planning on taking 6+ months to do this. I know I will meet new people but on those days where I dont see anyone, I want someone with me. I am 19 now, and I am setting a goal to do this in two years when I am 21, so I would leave some time in 2013… unless a good opportunity arises.
So if there is anyone out there who would be interested in joining me, look me up on face book (Ashley Williams) or email me ashleyw@cebridge.net
Later Y’all :) 5 months ago
