The A2A Trail Reconnaisance Hike was a great success
On October 15, John Davis and John Allport met on Wellesley Island after completing the end to end Hike. The hike was a great experience and many lessons were learned along the way. We were taken by the beautiful and diverse landscape the trail travels through, and the enthusiasm we encountered in our travels from the people and businesses we talked to. Please visit our facebook page - www.facebook.com/A2ACollab/
for a daily record and pictures of the hike, and stay tuned for the next steps.
