TRAIL GUIDE AUTHOR HITS THE TRAIL TO WRITE FROM EXPERIENCE
Author, long-distance hiker, and Lexington native, Scott Ward, has begun his "thru-hike" of the Sheltowee Trace to collect data for a "Thru-hiker Trail Guide of the S.T..
Scott has accepted the challenge of the STA to walk the entire Trace with no maps and no guidebooks, helping us access the directional conditions on the trail.
His hope is to complete the trail by the end of June and to have a guidebook ready for use by future "S.T. Thru-hikers" by the fall of 2010.
If you see him out there, please offer him a little magic along his way.
Scott previously has written the guide for the Mountains-to-the Sea Trail" that, when completed will stretch 1,000 miles from the Great Smokey Mountains to the Outer Banks. To purchase the guide visit http://www.thru-hiker.us/Home
