Author hiker Joan Young completes 4,800-mile NCT trail

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-cu8sb-145ed82

Joan Young is a long-distance hiker and prolific author, blogger, and avid photographer. She has conquered the North Country Trail (NCT) twice which is an unprecedented feat. She finished hiking the NCT on June 18, 2023, at Timber Creek after 18 months and 18 days on the trail averaging 13.2 miles per day.

Here is an excerpt from Joan’s adventures on the trail.

 

The heat was brutal. But I was walking along the Garrison Diversion canal at the time and I kept pouring water over my head. On the hottest day, I did 18 miles, but I had to do a shorter day the next day because I was so worn out. Then I started getting up and hiking at the crack of dawn so I was pretty much done before the temp hit 100 around 2 in the afternoon.

The best of both worlds, the old and the new

Threads

This time I came to the party early about four hours before Threads officially launched last Wednesday. I stumbled across the new social media platform as I was placing an ad on Meta for our Moravian Sons Distillery free tasting. I had to look up how to do it via my Instagram account. Then I got the ticket badge with my number #2681604.

The Lowell Ledger

Our hometown newspaper The Lowell Ledger hit the stands with the story about the Moravian Sons Distillery on Wednesday morning, and I could post on Threads that hasn’t launched yet in the evening.

Seamless integration. LOL
