Informative
My wife is an avid hiker and she hiked a couple hours of the AT from Harper’s Ferry when we were on the east coast last year. So I ordered the dvd as a surprise and we watched it. Very well done!

Hiking without blisters
I loved this book and the stories of his friends he met on the trail. The support of the locals is interesting and the trust the hikers have in them. This is the real American way of life everyone should experience. This will bring the trail right into your home and you don’t have to suffer the sore feet or bad weather. This is a good arm chair book to read anytime.

in great shape, packed well
We purchased this as a gift for our son, who has hiked on the AT annually for the past 3 yrs. It is his “pre-hike, warm-up, get-psyched, go-to.” And it is hard not to get excited too! Movie arrived promptly, in great shape, packed well. Thank you!

Not compatible with all dvd players.
A three rating because it doesn’t work on most dvd players. I’ve tried playing it on several..I gave this video as a gift and the person does not have the right dvd player to show the movie. I was not able to return it. The film itself was excellent and inspirational. Well done.

It Could’ve Been Great
…but instead, it was just kind of ‘meh’. I understand that it had to be made to fit into the time constraints of a tv show, as it was originally aired, but it was less about the trail and the people who attempt to hike it as it was a bunch of environmental preaching. Seriously, the documentary was less than an hour long, and the people who would buy it are interested in the actual, you know, Appalachian Trail, not the brook trout in the Smokies, acid rain, DDT, ticks, falcons on their way back from extinction, etc etc etc. Seriously–enough of the environmental claptrap. And I’m guessing miniscule variations in the ph levels of the mountain streams harm and stress the fish a whole lot less than a gaggle of so-called scientists tramping through the water on a regular basis, cornering the fish, and then shocking them with 40 volts of electricity. But then again, I’m not an expert–I could be wrong.On the plus side, the scenery and cinematography was awesome–definitely what you’d expect from Nat Geo. Otherwise, it was frustrating to watch.
