A little about this websiteWhy Destination: Damascus? Simply because Damascus, VA is where I plan to end my eleven week adventure through the backcountry of Virginia. My name is Ricki and beginning May 31, I will spend seventy-five days hiking southbound on the Appalachian Trail through the state of Virginia - roughly 540 miles.
This site is designed to provide a glimpse into my life on the trail. Consider yourself warned. |

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
Henry David Thoreau
