Appalachian Trail Thru-Hike Planner

Formerly known as The Appalachian Trail Workbook for Planning Thru-hikes, this is still the basic rip-out-the-pages-and-really-plan-your-adventure book--but thoroughly updated in 2005 to cover new trends in the fine fun of walking almost 2,175 miles from Georgia to Maine or vice versa. This book will help you chart your course, work out a budget, choose gear, plan meals, get in shape, and otherwise inspire you.
