Madison Setness- Outside Reading

On WhiteBalze.net I came across a few journal entries of how hiking the Appalachian Trail had changed several peoples lives. To read their stories makes me so excited to hopefully hike the trail one day myself. Hearing how they found themselves on the trail, or met their significant other or had a spiritual event are all alluring events that can transpire on the Appalachian Trail. For myself I'm looking for an adventure, but I think that hiking the AT will give me an adventure with meaning, and that's something special.
