[at-l] Hiking the AT using a car

[Jim Bullard]

Other options include: Finding some one else who wants to do it the same
way. One person hikes each section Northbound, the other Southbound. When
you meet in each section you exchange car keys to drive to the next section.
Doing something similar alone would be to hike approximately halfway to the
next road crossing, turn around and hike back to your car, drive to the next
road crossing and hike to the point where you turned around then back to
your car. Of course that would mean hiking the whole trail twice, a
sectional yoyo hike.
