AT Thru-Hiker Jeffrey Hunter Speaks

In the (Louisville, KY) Courier-Journal of 10 January 2007, Linda Stahl writes about a couple presentations of interest to hikers, including one by Jeffrey Hunter from the American Hiking Society. He's speaking about the planned "Great Eastern Trail," the 5,000 mile trail system being plotted for the southeast.

"Hunter is an avid hiker, fisherman and birder who has hiked many thousands of miles, including the Appalachian Trail and California’s John Muir Trail. His talk should be suitable for all ages and will be a chance to learn about big trail projects and about the American Hiking Society." Doesn't say when he was on the AT or what his trail name was. [Ah, but his profile on the AHS web site says he thru-hiked in 2000!]
