A Trail Around the States? Who Knew?!

Eye opening, nerd fest. A wonderful trek through one of the most unique experiences on the trail.

My biggest gripe is the same with most podders-Sound comes in hot.

Learned about the APT. I knew about the ADT because of The Old Lady On the Trail and Aren’t You Afraid? Loved learning and am inspired to get a long trail created, exclusively for TN.

Happy Trails!
