Use and Users of the Appalachian Trail: A Source Book
This Source Book is a compilation of data from a comprehensive user survey conducted on the Appalachian National Scenic Trail (A.T.) between May and October, 1999. The AT is a vital part of America's national system of parks, trails, monuments, battlefields, recreation areas, and other significant natural and cultural resources. Established as the first National Scenic Trail by Congress with passage of the National Trails System Act in 1968, the AT is a continuous marked footpath extending approximately 2,160 miles across the Appalachian Mountains from the summit of Springer Mountain in Georgia to the summit of Katahdin in Maine. The AT forms a greenway that connects numerous public land areas in 14 states. These public lands include 8 National Forests, 6 units of the National Park System, and more than 60 state parks, state forests, and state wildlife areas. Preserved within this greenway is the remarkable story of citizen action in the public interest, together with a wide variety of natural and cultural resources making the AT a valuable part of America's heritage.
