Field Notes

On thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail:

We’d follow those blazes down the middle of a busy interstate highway if that’s where they led. -

I have countless photos of the Appalachian Trail, and there are countless more on the Web. So instead I thought I would show the physical transformation during a southbound thru-hike. In 2008 I went from 195 lbs to 145 lbs. In 2018 I went from 175 lbs to 146 lbs.
