This Retiree To Hike The U.S. On Foot

What with all the “What do I do now?” questions, here is one real life example. Dave Roberts, 72, a retired teacher and software engineer, is on a mission to hike the United States by foot, by bike, even by kayak. “Hotels and lodges are out of the question; he camps out at night and lugs 25 pounds of equipment.” His plan is to travel part of the America’s hiking Triple Crown: Pacific Coast, Continental Divide Trail, and Appalachian Trail. For anyone that has a major hike on their bucket list, this article by the New York Times could be a great motivator for early retirement.
