Pickpick

Having lived close to the AT in Tennessee, I knew many people who day hiked and a few who thru hiked the trail. That piqued my interest in accounts of hikers, and I‘ve read a few. (I‘ll tag my fav below.) This is the history of the trail told through the lives of 10 of its founders, advocates, and hikers. An interesting #audiobook!

Amiable This looks like a book my avid-hiker friend Nancy would enjoy! Stacking as an idea for a gift for her. Thanks for the heads up. 3y
Megabooks @Amiable yeah, sounds like a good gift! The author goes chronologically from the 1800s when people were first starting to map where the AT would go through to Bill Bryson and his famous account. The final chapter is about hiking in the Internet age. 👍🏻 3y

Megabooks @Cortg that‘s awesome!! I found the chapter on how phone/internet connectivity has changed the AT really interesting. I hope he has safe travels! 3y
Cortg @Megabooks Yeees! My sister and I were just talking about how much easier it is with phones now! I had a classmate that hiked it after graduation in the 90‘s. Very different experience! 3y
