Well, I'm really confused about My Settings and the prior post I sent because that post went through. So here's the question I originally sent that started all of the problems with "My Settings"
I have been getting ready to hike my first real backback overnighter for over a year. My summers are pretty much tied up with large acreage mowing, and I have to pick my times carefully as my wife is not of the best of health. Where I live, most hikers say they like the Cranberry hikes, but they are experienced hikers, and I am not. I have been trying to decide which trail would fit my health, age, experience, and interest, and then the White Rocks review popped up on the home page. It just seemed to fit the bill.
So I'm thinking of doing this alone in the middle of September. Can anyone provide some tips, recommendations, warnings, or whatever. I may go with my son, who is completely inexperienced at hiking. I'm 55 years old, and have all of the bad things going wrong with me particular to that age - cholestorol, blood pressure, diabetes - but they are all under control and I walk about 5-6 miles a day (flat or mildly rolling)
Thanks for any suggestions.
Steve
