Section Hiker’s Appalachian Trail Journals
My trip reports are listed from north to south, even though I dart around from state to state and switch directions all the time. Most of my hikes have been solo with a few exceptions. I started section hiking the AT in 2007 and continue to this day. I’ve hiked about 1400 miles so far (updated April, 2016).
