Approx. $30,000

Includes:
Gear (although most of my gear was old), new gear during the hike to  
replace gear I didn't like, food on trail, water treatment,  
restaurant food, shoes, inserts for shoes, socks, clothing (mostly  
for town as I wore old clothing), hotels, campgrounds, showers, trail  
angels, rent, COBRA, loss of income from having no job, and a couple  
of beers.
