The Appalachian Trail: Backcountry Shelters, Lean-tos, and Huts

Our speaker for October was Sarah Jones Decker. She discussed the structures along America’s most famous footpath and talked about her new book “The Appalachian Trail: Backcountry Shelters, Lean-tos, and Huts”.  For the first time, she documented all of the structures in one place and explores their differences in design, materials, location, and delves into some of their history.
