Cool Video: Hike the 2,200-Mile Appalachian Trail in 4 Minutes (Not a Gov. Sanford Joke)

Yes. This is real. Filmmaker/Hiker Kevin Gallagher hiked the Appalachin trail from Georgia to Maine and stopped every day to take 24 snapshots of quintessential sections of this famed route. By the end, he�d collected more than 4,000 slides which he edited into a 4 minute film.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing this, it was pretty cool. It would certainly be fun to do that. Bill Bryson (sp?) has a book about doing it, but he did not do the whole thing.

Peace
