They started at Springer Mountain, Georgia as strangers, but finished after 6 months and 2,159 miles at Mt. Katahdin, Maine as friends for life. Their story reflects the determination it takes to overcome the obstacles along the trail and they invite you to share in the beauty of the people and their surroundings that they encountered on their journey.
