Is there anyone interested in starting an APC branch in Alabama?

I am game and so if my wife. I am Army and she is a Marine. We are officers and most don't like us to be around. I am still in the Army she is retired.

I'm hoping to possibly have a few more respond and we'll start networking the process. I'm hoping that we could start something. The closest CMP matches I know to Madison County are in Guntersville. Hiking areas of interest would be the state parks and Bankhead. As far West as Florence, as far East as Fort Payne, and as far south as 1/2 way to Birmingham would possibly be the main operating areas...

To give an update, I'm in talks with a couple of buddies to see if I can hand this off to a buddy to start. I'm caught up in school, business, and nonprofit things between 4 organizations. We shall see. In the meantime, keep kicking ass folks.

Tagging.
We are trying to start something in southern middle TN. This could include some of you guys in north AL. I'm not opposed to driving a couple hours to do a qualifying hike, myself. |

I just did this hike last Sunday AM. I'll do it again (different part of the trail) this Sunday if it isn't raining cats and dogs like it has all day today.

Prior Service Army here. I was a combat field medic and my wife is a nurse, so we can bring a few skills to the table.

Any of yall wanna go hike the Chinnabee Silent Trail up to the Pinhoti? We could all meet at the Turnipseed campground and park there. From there, it's a 2 mile ass kicking hike to the top of the mountain.
