Follow our journey as we attempt to hike all 2,198 miles of the Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine starting March 17, 2024. Though we are not hiking or backpacking rookies, this will be our first official thru hike and we will definitely be learning a lot of lessons about gear, our physical and mental capabilities. We are stoked to document and share our next journey with you through our daily vlogs from the trail!
