Extreme Sports - The Mountains Called, and We Went: The Trail Looked So Flat On the Map

Description

Book Synopsis: When my husband and I first started hiking the Appalachian Trail (AT) the odds were stacked against us. I was fifty-eight years old and my husband was sixty-four. The average hiker on the AT is in their thirties. We were a bit too old for this weren’t we? Approximately one in four people who start a thru hike of the Appalachian Trail actually make it to the finish. Could we be two of eight? The AT is almost 2200 miles of some of the most difficult hiking in the United States going through fourteen states from Georgia to Maine. The average time for completion of the hike is five to seven months. We were two very determined retirees planning to finish the AT no matter the obstacles or weather conditions thrown at us by Mother Nature. This book tells of our hiking adventures including several years learning how to hike and camp long before hiking the AT. It also describes a day by day account and the often humorous events that occurred while hiking the AT.
