Pop Tarts & Poison Ivy

My summer spent working on the Appalachian Trail.

Lost & Found

As ridgerunners, one of our jobs is to pick up any trash we find along the trail. And we’ve found some interesting things, including….

1. A plastic Buddha figurine.

2. A baby blue 3-speed bicycle.

3. Half a deer (no sign of the other half).

4. A winter sled.

5. A straw sombrero, which is now the official AMC 15-passenger van driving hat.

6. …And a PUPPY!

(This is actually a sad story: someone abandoned a puppy in the woods. But it has a happy ending: Caleb “I don’t usually brag about myself but I think I’d be an awesome dog owner” Jackson adopted her! They make an adorable couple.)
