  • This little guy may be the youngest adventurer to ever hike the entire Appalachian Trail - and he’s only 5 years old! Harvey Sutton’s father, Josh, told Inside Edition that their family had watched a video about a kid who hiked the entire 2,190-mile trail at just under 6 years old, and realized they could beat that record. The family started their historic journey in Georgia back in January and completed the trail, ending in Maine. Harvey had plenty of sweets to keep his energy up. #InsideEdition

    He isn't the first and he isn't the youngest. It's a long slog, but if he actually enjoyed it in a non competitive way, terrific. See if he wants to do another trail or if he's had enough.
    In California lots of families have hiked the John Muir and the Pacfic Crest trails. It's a wonderful gift to give a kid, but leave the competition out of it. Do it for love.

      Bring a pistol. 10mm or 44mag is always a good choice, works well on 2 legged and 4 legged threats. And go with a group, preferably 4 people total that way if things get rough and someone wants to turn back they won't have to go alone and the 2 other people can continue
