Episode #71 - Matt Philippi (Jersey)

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis · Jan 25, 2018 · 1h 1m

Matt Philippi is not currently looking to do a thru-hike of the AT. For Matt, biting off sections is a satisfying way to de-stress from his job. He contacted me to talk about the Chesapeake & Ohio (C&O) Canal Towpath. It is quite some towpath, running from Washington DC to Cumberland MD and measuring over 184 miles. I had previously intended speaking with Matt but I dropped the ball on that, so it was good to hear from him again. This time, we combined his C&O hike with his experiences hiking the AT in sections.

Matt shared a link to the C&O Canal Towpath. https://www.nps.gov/choh/index.htm…
