Nice documentary film, Adam.
Great challenge for any young person, and great family support during the journey.
Also, a great video about kindness from strangers.

Generally, the trail is not considered that safe. Various threats exist, from animals to nuts.

Well done.
One suggestion...Please reconsider your pronunciation of
“Appalachian”.
Everyone I know who lives along/ loves the trail pronounces it the other way.
No long “A”.

I section hiked the AT back in the 90’s. It was a soul awakening experience.

Many yrs. ago circa 1957 I hiked half of Smokey Mountain NP. Spent 4 days, 3 nights on the trail. Hiked from Waterville to Newfound Gap w/ a side trip up Mt. LeConte.
With a summer camp group.
Our leader? Eustace Conway. Not the one on Mountain Men, Probably his father.
Quite an accomplishment to hike the entire Trail. Twenty miles / day is tough.
