Hi Cindy, The AT is the Appalachian Trail which runs from Georgia to Maine. I have not hiked the trail strait through, but I have hiked sections of it. This section in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia is forested, as is the majority of the trail. But there are some sections that cross roads and powerlines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appalachian_Trail

nice! Am I the only one who always sings the name of this spotting to the tune of the "chicken of the sea" jingle?

Nice series! Great color on this one. For those of us not from your area, what is the AT and is the Keys Gap in forest?
