2006 - The Hiking Year in Pictures
2006 was a good year on the trail. I'd like to share with you some of my favorite photos taken during the year. If you have a great photo that you'd like to share from out on the trail in 2006, please send it along and we might include it here on the Southern Appalachians Initiative blog. Be sure to tell us where the photo was taken, and who took the image so we can provide a caption and a proper photo credit. Enjoy!
