If you decide to go it alone bear in mind that the more secluded and out of town you are the less likely you are to get attacked by someone but the less likely you are to get help if you actually are. (Bit of a lose-lose situation isn't it?) Honestly though, I've only ever done it when that was the only choice; you will be taking risks if you do it. oh! And carry your stuff around for the day first while not spending anything more than the bare minimum; being underfed and bored and scared at the same time while lugging around clothes and a sleeping bag is all part of the experience.
