A favorite for 28 years of  section-hikers and dreamers alike, it is still the only such guide written by volunteers, and all the proceeds are returned to the A.T. by these two nonprofits. Fact-checking research is done by more than two dozen thru-hiker volunteers in 14 states, backed by the first-hand information of the trail?s volunteer and staff maintainers and managers. Includes gear manufacturers? toll-free numbers, post office hours, and much more.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57836625265022,"sku":"NW9781680518009","price":15.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/appalachian-trail-thruhikers-companion","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
