5.0 out of 5 stars Very informative

I am using this book to follow my son as he hikes the trail. It is very informative, gives all the locations that you will need to know so you know where your loved one is at all times. It has come in very handy as it has all the phone numbers to the establishments along the trail so I have used it to call ahead to get information for my son when his cell phone service was not the best. This book is so packed with information I can't even begin to explain it all. It has been fun to follow my son and I write down the dates of the places (shelters, hostels, towns) he has stayed at night. I have an entry for every night since he left on April 16, 2018. It will be a fun keepsake for him as I have also jotted down where on the trail phone service was bad, where the bears are most prevalent, and other little tidbits of info that he can look back on in 20 years.

im planing a thru hike of the AT for 2020 and I got this to take a look at the trail and familiarize myself with it in advance before Im out there. It is a very descriptive guide and shows a lot of useful information to help hike the trail. I will be buying another one in 2020 when I head out on the trail. The seller is also very kind and has reached out to me to make sure everything was good with their product and I appreciate that.

A lot of info to help one plan from one checkpoint to another. The AT Guide shows the elevation difference, distance, water sources, frequent bear activity (if any), elevation graph and much more from one checkpoint to another,. I'm 69 and this guide is perfect for my planned flip flop AT hike for Spring '19. If you are serious about hiking the AT, STOP looking for source books. This is the one you need, more than any other!

Right down to the plastic sleeve it arrived in this detailed tome is exactly what I had hoped, and heard, it would be. Great pocket size & clear descriptions of what's coming next are proving to be a great planning aid for this adventure we hope to set out on next year. It's as though you were already walking the trail & can postulate on what gear/equipment might be needed at exactly what point.
Well done to "AWOL". A great publication.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for planning hikes. Not so great for reading entertainment.

The plot sucks - but it's informative. Just kidding - this is NOT a "reading" book, but a planning book. Full of details and miles and shelter locations. An indispensable book for anyone looking to hike sections of the Appalachian Trail, or those who want to attemp a "thru-hike" of the entire thing. I buy the even-number years and highlight the pieces I have done. A great book for hiking.

This A.T. Guide book, is very helpful, making plans of where your headed to, dealing with distance, water locations, shelter/camping locations and plenty of information having to do with towns, places to eat and to stay, that are near different points of the A.T. It even comes with a plastic zip lock bag, to keep it dry, while hiking.

I used the 2013 guide to plan a section hike in Georgia and North Carolina. The guide helped me with trip planning and I have used this guide for every trip since. After 5 years, I decided it was time to upgrade.The 2018 guide has all the updates and information I need to make trip planning easy. This guide is truly worth every penny.

I'm not sure if they've gotten complacent or what, but there were definitely moments where this guide was inaccurate on the trail. I would still recommend this product, but I would definitely not us it as my only source for guidance on the AT. Guthook's seemed to be a little more reliable most of the time. I would recommend this guide.
