5 Pairs of Shoes Adventure: The Appalachian Trail Journal of Jay Douglas

The Appalachian Trail is 2,193 miles of beautiful views and interesting places spanning 14 of the United States from Georgia to Maine. Follow the daily journal of an Appalachian Trail thru-hiker as they spend 190 days hiking the length of the entire trail all in one go. Put yourself in one of the five pairs of shoes it took Jay Douglas to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail as you ask yourself, how comfortable are you with the thought of taking a car shuttle with people you've just met, to a town you have never heard of, exhausted from hiking, nowhere to stay as nighttime approaches, and with a dead cell phone? Would you panic or keep it together? Does being alone hiking multiple mountains daily with only what you can carry thrill or terrify you? Join Jay Douglas as he is dropped off with nothing but a 38-pound bag of hiking gear in a parking lot at Springer Mt, Georgia overcome the elements, poison ivy, shin splints, and that one mountain lion spotted while night hiking in Virginia as he hikes all the way to Mt. Katahdin, Maine. Pictures of the gorgeous countryside are included along with hilarious stories involving good friends made along the way. Enjoy the tell-all commentary included after the completion of the trail without compromising any of the authenticity of the Journal itself. No names were changed in the making of this true tale of adventure. I am proud to give to you, the Appalachian Trail Journal of Jay Douglas.
