The book touches on just about everything you will need to know to start planning for a successful long-distance hike and will answer questions such as:
What is the Appalachian Trail?
Why do most people quit?
What animals should you be worried about?
How do you plan and budget for a 5-7 month hiking trip?
What permits will you need?
How do you hike 2200 miles without getting a blister?
What gear do you need?
How do you do the doo in the middle of the woods
Where should you NOT have sex when thru-hiking?
Even if you are not hiking the AT but have a loved one who is, you will find this book helpful in understanding what that loved one is taking on.”

Cool! My bday is coming up and my kids were just asking me what I wanted.
Woo hoo – happy birthday in advance!
I’m excited to read y’alls book! Hopefully you have my order – remember we had dinner with Happy in Caratunk while we were staying at The Sterling Inn. I’m headed to China in a couple of day, then Haiti and in late July I am hiking The Whites with my son. Can’t wait to follow your hike on the El Camino in Spain. It’s one of my retirement dreams!
Carol! So kind of you, thank you! Got your order. Of course we remember you, I remember you looked so chic with your scarf around your neck (NOT like hiker-trash at all!). Have fun on your travels, that sounds fab, and enjoy the Whites with your son. — Chica & Sunsets
