The North Country National Scenic Trail is the longest trail in the United States.  It stretches 4600 miles from North Dakota to Vermont.  From April to October of 2013, Luke Jordan thru-hiked the trail from west to east encountering many obstacles including knee-deep snow, tree blowdowns, and overgrown trails almost impossible to navigate.  You can learn more about his adventure at stridernct.com.  Luke Jordan, welcome to The Pursuit Zone.
