How many US states have you hiked in?

What states were they?

I've hiked in Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee and Arkansas. So, 5 for me.

How about you all?
 
well it is a long list and to long to list individually. Without counting probably 30-35. I have done 26 states this year. I expect to finish this year with about 1,400 miles. New to my list this year is California. I hiked Joshua Tree NP and surrounding area. In a couple months in January I am going back to California and spend 4-5 days in Death Valley. Next spring I plan to hit Florida for the first time.

What i do in planning a trip is pick a main destination or two and then hike in route to that destination. Next week I am headed for Georgia as my main destination and will spend 4-5 days of a 11 day trip there but enroute I will do Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and Arkansas.
