Each year, it is estimated that more than 2,000 people set out to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail, yet seven in ten ultimately fall short of their goal. Given the countless number of how-to books and websites offering information about logistics, gear, and endurance training, one would think that more people would finish this 2,200 mile trek. Why then, do so many hikers quit prematurely?

While the AT undoubtedly presents extraordinary physical challenges, it is the psychological and emotional struggles that drive people off the trail. Conquering these mental obstacles is the key to success. This groundbreaking book focuses on the most important and overlooked piece of equipment of all- the gear between one's ears.

In this book, you'll find:

  • Learn how to budget wisely, save money and not waste cash.
  • Know how to carve out 6 months from your family, job and home.
    Master a massive gear guide on everything from your spork to your tent.
  • Understand clothing, layering and materials.
  • Hear about what life is really like on the trail.
  • Know which direction to go, when and why.
  • Familiarize yourself with a state by state breakdown of the trail.
  • Learn how to mentally prepare for the "I-wanna-quit-days"
  • Understand the physical demands and methods to prevent injury.
  • Prepare for the nutritional needs with favorite meals and food ideas.
  • Know the real dangers on the AT.
