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.","brand":"Appalachian Long Distance Hikers Association","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46336133759212,"sku":"9781680518009","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/1791\/3068\/files\/9781680518009.jpg?v=1743668518","url":"https:\/\/intl.allstora.com\/products\/appalachian-trail-thru-hikers-companion-2025","provider":"Allstora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
