Hi, I'm Carl Natale, the guy in charge of MaineToday.com's Outdoors section. I'm also a registered Maine sea kayak guide, an avid (winter) hiker, cross country skier, casual biker and a car camper. Here are my adventures.

You may not be through hiking

If you hiked the Appalachian Trail, you have a lot to be proud of. You completed the journey of a lifetime. You attempted something many of us never will dream of doing. It was quite an adventure from Alabama to Mount Katahdin.

Oh. You started at Springer Mountain in Georgia? Didn't they tell you that there is an alternate start to the AT?

Nothing is official. But Alabama officials think the epic journey needs to be longer. Apparently it's too easy.

And take it easy on those e-mails. I'm just the messenger. Besides, you were looking for an excuse to do it again.
