Ellie was only a year old when her parents put her in a backpack and embarked on a dream hike on the Appalachian Trial. Ellie spent just over six months watching the world go by at 3 mph through amazing landscapes while meeting the most amazing people in the Thru Hiking community. She even learned to walk while on the AT!!!
