Corridor 9

I think Kilimanjaro is going to have to wait a while till I get a bit more financially stable. I could shell out half what REI Adventures is charging, but I’d also be looking at a 5-6 day trip instead of a 13-14 day trip. I’m not so sure I want to climb a mountain that high in that time period due to the acclimatization factors. Plus… I’d rather go with a company that is well founded than some fly by night guide service.

Instead of planning a trip overseas, I thought I’d start planning a winter hike through the smokeys. Here is a preliminary map. I figured I’d only get 4-5 days most, and with the snowfall in the area I didn’t want to get too far into the back country.
