Happy New Year and Welcome to 2021! Jester had a chance to connect with Kathryn Herndon-Powell, Education and Outreach Coordinator with the Appalachian Trail Conservancy. Kathryn educates us on the 7 Leave No Trace Principles, gives us some great resources to utilize as we plan our section hikes for 2021, and overall just be better stewards out on the trails.
