Tomorrow after work I will have my first hike and solo overnighter. I have done solo's before, but not combined with a hike in and camp. I have only car camped by myself. I am really excited to do this. The wife is terrified. Hoepfully she will be okay and not worry too much. For my NC hangers I am headed to the Turkey Pen Trail Head. I have day hiked here before and I am looking forward to a little hike, hang and fish. I plan to take video while I am on the trip. I will post a report and the video when I return.
I want to thank many people here on the forum (Fireinmybones, Shug, SnakeSession and others) that have inspired me to do this solo. I have always had reservations about this, but I picked this weekend and had several people back out last minute. So, solo trip it is. This is a simple 1 night trip. I will check the forum once before I go so if anyone has any pointers let me know. Not sure how long I will hike before setting up. It depends on what time I get out of work, what time I arrive and light. I hate setting up camp with nothing, but a head lamp.
Thank you all again and have a great weekend!
