I am reposting this link that was found on the Facebook page for Appalachian Long Distance Hikers Association.
"Hi everyone, I’m doing research about Appalachian Trail hikers for my senior research project. If you could take my survey I would really appreciate it! It should take less than 5 minutes. I am trying to gather as many responses as possible, so feel free to share this survey with others. Thank you!"
