Frank "The Walrus" Miller Hits the Trail

The 1 February 2007 edition of The Havre (MT) Daily News has an article about retiring obstetrician Dr. Frank Miller who has headed for Springer withplans to thru-hike. Written by Tim MacDonald, the article is titled "Physician Taking to the 'Trail'."

Besides marking his retirement he is going "to raise funds for the proposed Hi-Line Sletten Cancer Center" in Havre, Montana. He ran into delays right at the start because of some ice problems at the Atlanta airport. Not to worry, though, “'I think the hike will take around six months, but it may take seven or eight, depending on where I find to stop along the way,' Miller said."

"Interested parties can track Miller on their computers at TrailJournals.com, 'The Walrus,' after the doctor’s distinctive Fu Man Chu moustache."
