Two good friends hiked all 100 miles on the Finger Lakes Trail/NCT in New York State. Saw lots of glorious gullies and fabulous forests. No much wildlife, but we did have a close encounter with some cows. On one hike in Allegany County, we had to enter the trail through a gated cow pasture. As we unlocked the gate several of the residents ambled over to inspect the intruders. We were surrounded. Speaking to the herd in a gentle voice, we hastily relocked the gate, squeezed past their large bodies, and found the trail. Fortunately they did not follow.

This has been a wonderful adventure beginning February 28, 2016 and ending today, December 9, 2016, on the trail. Shared the majority of my hikes with my husband, Mark, along with a few solo hikes. Revisited trails not seen in years along with many new ones that we discovered together that were just spectacular. Thank you for getting us off the couch! Ha ha.

While I had actually completed the "Hike 100" challenge shortly after the end of snowshoeing season in March (and several times over since), I challenged myself to hike 100 "new" miles, heading west out of Munising. I appreciated the varied terrain in this area, the commitment of the local chapter volunteers, and the knowledge they have of their Trail territory. They were a great resource! Looking forward to what's in the next 100...!
Well sometimes you need a little tune to cheer u up and power to top up youre mobile battery ,this thing does both :-) thanks to @s1l3ntolic

I hiked approximately 250 miles on the Superior Hiking Trail this season. 50 miles were recreational, including a 33 mile day hike on the SHT through Duluth, and 200 miles were leading volunteers on SHT work projects, including 2 miles of new trail to the Minnesota/Wisconsin state line. Through the season there were 159 volunteers, 2,840 volunteer hours, and countless miles on the SHT.
We hiked many state parks in Minnesota on the North Shore. Only three of our miles were on the NCT in Wisconsin. Since I live in Wisconsin, I really enjoyed seeing the scenery on the North Shore on the SHT and the Willard Munger trail. I am 70 years old and love to hike so this was the perfect challenge for me.

Day four saw our only significant elevation gain on this trip. We went up the Plug Creek drainage (~650m gain) and then entered really nice alpine areas and camped at Last Call Lake. Photo taken on the Wokkpash Loop in Stone Mountain Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada.
Putting 100 miles on the North Country Trail this year, 2016, was accomplished by doing a variety of things I love to do on the trail. Some of the miles were achieved doing maintenance and blazing on my own. Some of the miles were while removing fallen trees blocking the trail with fellow trail workers. Many of the miles were done by just going for a walk in the woods alone and enjoying the encounter with nature. And of course many were done with my friends and co-hikers who enjoy putting miles on together.
I didn't learn of the Hike 100 Challenge until after I decided to do a 51-mile trek in the Manistee National Forest in Michigan in August. I was traipsing around the Internet the week I came back from the outing, and I decided to wander over to the North Country Trail website. Of course, when I came upon the website, I learned about the Hike 100 challenge. My work schedule is brutal during the Fall, but I did manage to finish up the 100 miles on December 24! I had a ton of fun seeing new parts of the trail, and I am incredibly glad that I finished in 2016. Of course, now that 2017 is bringing a new hike 100 challenge, I am obligated to begin a collection of patches. Looking forward to new experiences, and I hope to branch out of PA and MI in 2017!
I started in March and ended in October, so seven months. I hiked 21 times, as short as a mile and as long as 8.5 miles at a time. I hiked on our Western Michigan Chapter Hikes, maintenance days, and attended the NCTA Celebration in Fargo. Sometimes I hiked alone and sometimes in groups as large as 30! I am proud of myself, since I am 61 and still hiking! I enjoyed every minute of all the different experiences. I think my favorites were the Prairies in ND and the fall woods of Michigan here in Newaygo County.

Had great fun hiking the beautiful North Country Trail. Began earlier in the year, took a break over the summer, then completed our miles in September, October, and November. Hiked several days in November on snow shoes after a big storm; ended the 100 by hiking (and cleaning) our section of the trail in a light snow fall. Found a "kill" and saw a wolf print in the snow yesterday!

I have been hiking the North Country Trail in the Western Pennsylvania state game lands for a few years. I decided last year to become a member of the Wampum chapter. I received a nice welcome letter from the Chapter encouraging me to come to the monthly meetings. After attending a meeting I decided to adopt a 4 mile section of trail near my home. I love walking here and most of my miles were walked here doing maintenance throughout the year. Other miles that I hiked were during the monthly hikes that the chapter holds.

We live in Dayton, Ohio and love to hike the trails in our local parks. The North Country Trail, using the Buckeye Trail corridor, passes through Dayton and very close to our house. We saw a notice for a hike in February to start the challenge and decided to go. It was a cold, snowy day and we missed the group, but did meet another person wanting to hike so we took off on the beginning of our adventure. Over the next eight months we did lots of hiking, but never again on the North Country Trail. Near us, the trail is primarily bike path and city streets - we often bike it, but usually do not hike it. In late October we decide it was time to get serious about completing this challenge. We have hiked out and back loops eleven times without repeating any sections. Our shortest day was 6 miles (the first one we did) and the longest was 11.5. We have enjoyed seeing where the trail goes in our area and there are still miles that we can explore in 2017 without having to drive far.
