Black Heart on the Appalachian Trail (22 page)

Too, I cannot forget the hard-working volunteers who maintain the Appalachian Trail. Some of these folks have maintained the AT for years, asking nothing in return. Without them the mountains would reclaim the trail and the AT would cease to exist.

I'd also like to thank the Appalachian Trail Conservancy for their ceaseless efforts. This organization does a great job creating and maintaining the wilderness experience.
