Appalachian trail 2018

On June 15, 2018, I set off to hike the Appalachian Trail (AT) in its entirety, also known as a thru-hike. On December 12th, 2018, I completed my AT journey and hiked over a snowy Springer Mountain. The trail changed my life for the better and I’m here to give others the tools to experience the same.

If you’re considering a southbound (SOBO) thru-hike, think of The Concrete Hiker as your go-to resource for everything you need to know to prepare, conquer, and successfully hike 2,190 miles from Maine to Georgia.
