2013 AT 2,000-miler listing

#1 
									ATC just updated our on-line 2,000-miler registry to include names of those who reported A.T. completions to ATC in the last 12 months, as of December 31, 2013. There is currently a link from our home page, but you can find it at www.appalachiantrail.org/about-the-trail/2000-milers/2000-milers-listing.

If you have completed the A.T. but have not reported it to ATC, you can download an application form at www.appalachiantrail.org/ATcompletion.

If there is an error in your listing, please send corrections to info@appalachiantrail.org. We update the website listing a few times a year.

Our annual listing in A.T. Journeys is published in the March/April issue and includes the names of those who have submitted applications in the 12-month period ending December 31. (A thru-hike does not have to be completed in a calendar year, though).

We also want to give a shout-out to all the amazing volunteers who have helped process the applications, send out certificates, and compile the listing. They contributed about a thousand hours last year.

												Just wanted to say congratulations to all of you.

Now is the beginning. The past is foregone, this is the way forward.

												Destination: Horns Pond Shelter

Starting Location: Crocker Cirque Camp
Today’s Miles: 12.60
Trip Miles: 2003.8
October 2 - Horns Pond Shelter … in Maine
Milepoint 1984.4, 176 days since start of hike, averaging 11.3 miles per day

I picked up a few things at the general store and headed northward on the Trail.

Later on, from the top of mountains called “The Horns”, I again look through a late afternoon blue sky toward the northeast. There…still a tiny mark but alone now on the horizon. Some say elegant, some foreboding. For a few it is the end out there…but for most I believe it to be a beginning.
