A favorite 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.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1680518003\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1680518003.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Appalachian Long Distance Hikers Association\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
