“Hike 100 Challenge”

With our early Spring, we are all thinking of getting out on the trail, whether the Appalachian Trail (A.T.) or our local trails. Here’s a program that you can register for to allow you to measure your progress towards getting 100 miles under your belt in 2016. In conjunction with the National Park Service Centennial, the Appalachian National Scenic Trail office has developed a program to encourage everyone to get out and hike in 2016. The ‘Hike100 Challenge’ offers a celebratory decal to any person who hikes a total of 100 miles in the year 2016, with at least one hike taking place on the A.T. With approximately 600 participants so far, response has been overwhelmingly positive! At least one person has already completed the challenge. Simply download a hiking log and turn it in by the end of the year with a registration form.
