NOTICE: We are happy to announce the new dates for this wonderful presentation. Please note new dates and locations below.
When Karen “Cody” Howser thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2010 it was officially 2179.2 miles end to end. Currently it officially measures 2194.3 miles long. Elevation gain & loss on the entire AT totals roughly 464,500 feet (for scale, Mt. Everest elevation is 29,042 ft). Some say it takes 5,000,000 steps to hike the entire length. Cody will tell you how she did it, sharing information on physical needs such as food & gear, mental & emotional challenges, and the essence of the experience, trail culture.
Dates & Time: Feb 10: 5:30-8pm; Feb 11: 8:30-10am
