Earl's 1965 Hike Posted on Trail Journals

Almost nothing has ever been published about Earl's 1965 southbound hike, which made him the first person ever to have thruhiked the trail in both directions. In celebration of the 40th anniversary of that hike, the Foundation is posting entries from the journal in which Earl recorded notes of that journey. Have a look at www.trailjournals.com/earlshaffer.
