ODYSSEY 2021: Bama to Baxter-Hike On!
Sponsors Journals Itinerary Gear List
Yes folks, Nimblewill has laced up his Oboz trekkers and is shouldering his Murmur backpack
one more time–for the last, last time!
This year’s odyssey will be known as “Odyssey 2021 ‘Bama to Baxter – Hike On.” This will be the ultimate journey in this old man’s life, one of body, mind and spirit.
This trek begins at Flagg Mountain, the southernmost mountain in the Appalachians
Mountain Range. From Flagg he’ll follow the Pinhoti Trail through northeast Alabama into
Georgia where he’ll connect with the Benton MacKaye Trail–which leads to Springer Mountain
in north Georgia. On Springer Mountain he’ll pick up the Appalachian Trail and hike it on to
Mt. Katahdin in Maine.
Journal entries and photos will be posted often. Gonna be another predictively unpredictable
Nimblewill Odyssey – Bama to Baxter 2021 Hike On.
Sure be great to have y’all come along…

Sonny, so sorry we didn’t get to make it back to Flagg the day before you left, we had a sick grand baby. We are going to try to surprise Kinsley and come meet up with you on the trail some time this summer. We hope to see you soon, hope you are enjoying every step. We also look forward to seeing you back up on the mountain this fall or winter in Weogufka.

Enjoying your 10,000,000 Steps book. Following your progress with an atlas. Slows the reading but adds much. You just entered New Jersey.
