            I wish I had something great to say about this film. Don't get me wrong, there was not anything seriously wrong with it other than the fact that it is rather outdated (if I saw correctly the original edition was done in 1991). He did a get job covering all the aspects of trail life and talking to many people while they were actually in the process of completing their trip. You can not get any more of a first hand account than that unless you hike the trail yourself.

            I think the best part of the video was the information that is given on all of the resupply points along the trail. He breaks down state by state what the average distance is to each town where you can resupply and even shows videos of each town the trail runs through. So unless you really desperately desire to have that information there is nothing that this film presents to you that you can not find in any AT book or website.
