We are too far away from Duluth to help you, but I sure hope you blog about your adventure. That area is so beautiful and I’ve been fantasizing about a longer hike up there. Good luck!

I definitely plan to! But I likely won't start the blog until after the hike is already over so maybe in July....

I know a couple of noxers up there I could try. You're talking about the southern trailhead in Jay Cooke SP?

I love road trips, and that isn't too far to just go driveabout for the day, but Thursdays are my workdays from beyond! darn it!

Yeah, but now I'm thinking I'll just do the trail through town that day and not even worry about. Let Amanda shuttle me to the end when she arrives. =)

So will you have time for a meet-n-greet at either end of the hike?! I would drive 2 hours to Duluth for a GT exchange (on a weekend - can't swing a weekday unless it's raining)!

I could probably make some time in the evening on the 2nd or 3rd. It'll take a few days to hike through Duluth. (There's no free camping the first 50 miles or so so I expect to be around those first few days before I get into the wilderness.) =)
I expect to fly out from Minneapolis/St. Paul on my way out, though, so maybe that'll be more convenient. I don't have a precise date for that, though. Probably end of June or first second of days of July.

I could work that into my week if you are still looking for transportation. Are you taking photos for a new Walking4Fun Trail?
Also would be up for a meet and greet before you fly out of MPLS.

If all goes well! =)
I can't really plan that too far in advance since I don't actually know when I'll finish the trail yet. It would likely be a fairly last-minute thing with a day or two advance warning at best.
