Take a Hike!: A Long Walk on the Appalachian Trail

by Tim Hewitt

Join Paddler and his 13 year old son Spotted Bear as they hike the 2200 mile Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine. More than 350 pages of pre-hike planning, execution, keys to success, and the daily journals for both Paddler and his son are included. Bonus chapters bring you a sample of Tim's creative writing talent as well, as he introduces you to the mythology of the Cherokee Ugalu, and the Penobscot Pamola, two spirit-beasts that haunt the Appalachian Mountains. These are also available in the stand-alone short story book, Appalachian Trail The Ugalu and Pamola.

It was somewhat helpful as I plan on hiking a section of the Appalachian trail. Many repeated things, I know some was for emphasis. I guess my only suggestion would be to add more day-to-day details. Instead of saying "after chores..." describe what the chores where.

Good book though overall.

Terrible

Audio book of his travel logs were good, lots of interesting information and I liked the reader. The son's journal was boring and I didn't really like the stories at the end.

More of a trail guide than a story
