Jenny has always thought she would like to hike the Appalachian Trail, yes all 22oo plus miles. Last year she read an article about a local man who took three months to hike it with details of problems faced during the trip; he said he wore out two pairs of shoes.
The Max Patch is a very popular section of the Appalachian Trail where day hikers can go and and get a taste, however, a very little taste! While at the Max Patch, Jenny met a lady who was hiking part of the trail; she was carrying a forty-five pound back pack that Jenny could barely pick-up. Jenny no longer talks about hiking the Appalachian as one of her, “Bucket List”.
