Appalachian Trail Thru-Hikers' Companion 2025

A favourite for 28 years of section-hikers and dreamers alike, it is still the only such guide written by volunteers, and all the proceeds are returned to the A.T. by these two nonprofits. Fact-checking research is done by more than two dozen thru-hiker volunteers in 14 states, backed by the first-hand information of the trail's volunteer and staff maintainers and managers. Includes gear manufacturers' toll-free numbers, post office hours, and much more. -Elevation profiles show the day ahead -Landmark-by-landmark tables provide at-a-glance information -Town maps indicate food and lodging
