About the Book

This book chronicles the 2006 thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail by a nervous backpacker. Starting at Springer Mountain in Georgia, Marley meets an experienced woods dog who helps Marley gain confidence as they share the adventure of hiking 2176 miles to Mount Katahdin in Maine. Along the way Marley learns important lessons on how to hike safely while protecting the environment. Based entirely on Marley's actual 2006 thru-hike, the only fictitious part of the book is our hero - Blaze.
