John Hepp (Cincinnati) writes, “Over the past five and a half months, I backpacked the entire 2,189 miles of the Appalachian Trail. Beginning on Springer Mountain in Georgia and ending on Mt. Katahdin in Maine, I hiked across 14 states, over countless mountains, through the breathtaking beauty of the Appalachian wilderness. I typically hiked from sunup to sundown, tenting along the
way, and resupplying my food and cleaning my body and clothes in mountain towns every seven days or so. The Trail has been the most challenging and rewarding endeavor of my life. Thank you to my parents and the Seven Hills community for the encouragement and support.”
