A recently retired Michigan State University employee is not taking his retirement lying down.
Back in March, Mr. Ken Dawson told Current State about his plan to spend five months hiking America’s Continental Divide. The 3,100-mile solo adventure began April 15 in in extreme southern New Mexico, not far from the Mexican border.
Current State’s Mark Bashore connected with Ken Dawson by phone on Saturday as he was passing through Pie Town, New Mexico.
The Farmington Hills man says it’s been challenging but going well. From Pie Town, New Mexico, he says he crossed about 100 miles of desert in his first five days.
