Funny and entertaining. Loses a couple stars for endless dated hyperbole about how acid rain is going to wipe everything out (actually serves as a good warning to take whatever today's environmental panic of the moment with a big grain of salt) and his several unneeded shots at religious people (He skips most of the trail in the south because they are Christians there). He's a New Englander who rails against commercialization and environmental damage while he and his buddy litter all over the AT, smoke in the woods, and drink soda and eat fast food. Hard to take him seriously on those points, but it is otherwise a fun read.
