An Appalachian Trail News Blog

News, notes, and comments. (The links are live when I insert them, but -- given the volatility of the Web -- the news articles may not exist when you try to get to them. If that's so, try going to the site of the news source and hounding them until they yield up the article. Also the dates of online posting and paper printing may not match exactly, so keep that in mind if you have to locate the article offline.)
