Thru-Hiking the Appalachian Trail
2184 miles through 14 states from Georgia to Maine
Over 7 Months beginning April 2013 (that’s 10-15 miles per day)
We will walk approximately 5 million steps in the direction of our goal
10% of those who attempt to complete the trail actually accomplish it
We plan to sign the book at the summit of Mount Katahdin and join the short list of successful AT thru-hikers
Notes from the Ranch 
Know you guys are welcome to charge up for your hike just south of atlanta. Otherwise, hope we can join you for some trail time in April or May!
Thanks Maggie! Couldn’t imagine starting trail without stopping by HOTlanta to see you and your beautiful family!
We’re visiting friends in Montpelier, VT right now and it’s beautiful up here. Sounds like an awesome trip.
(oh, and I assume you mean April 2013?)
Love the continuing blog with the ranch focus. Somehow, overlanding -> simple living just flows. At least we think so!

What day is it? October? It’s been months since we got home but I still can’t get a proper grasp on the time. 2013 indeed. Thanks for the kind words you two. Keeping up with your ongoing ventures certainly keeps us inspired. Keep it rural!
Very cool! Lauren and I were talking about thru- hiking the Pacific Crest Trail when we returned. The “green tunnel” sounds epic as well.
