This is the follow up photogrpah to my last "Long Walk Home" This photo was taken looking at the opposite side of the road where the last was taken. It was taken on part of the App trail that runs threw NJ.
According to Wikipedia "The Appalachian National Scenic Trail, generally known as the Appalachian Trail or simply The A.T., is a marked hiking trail in the eastern United States, extending between Springer Mountain in Georgia and Katahdin in Maine.[1] It is approximately 2,175 miles (3,500 km)a[›] long. The path is maintained by thirty trail clubs and multiple partnerships.[2] The majority of the trail is in wilderness, although some portions do traverse towns and roads, and even cross rivers.
The Appalachian Trail is famous for its many hikers, some of whom, called thru-hikers, attempt to hike it in its entirety in a single season. Earl Shaffer was the first to do so. Many books, memoirs, web sites and fan organizations are dedicated to this pursuit.
Along the way, the trail passes through the states of Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. An extension, the International Appalachian Trail, continues north into Canada and to the end of the range, where it enters the North Atlantic Ocean."
I used Picasa to convert this to black and white. I took advantage of the fog brushing over the trees in the distance and thought the colors were better displayed in black and white. |
