Emily Madeline- the AT!

During most of this semester we've talked about the A.T. I've always found these classes to be the best. I love the idea of just taking 6-7 months off of life and doing a thru-hike. During our class walk on the Nolan trail my desire to do one of these hikes just grew. I love being out in nature and some of my favorite memories include being outside: camping trips with my family and boyfriend, hunting seasons with my dad, hiking Zion & the Grand Canyon. That is part of the reason that I'm looking forward to hiking the AT with class this May! Since the day I signed up I want to tell anyone and everyone who asks what my plans are this summer. It's going to be great.
