About the Author

Frank and Victoria Logue hiked the entire Appalachian Trail (AT) in 1988 and have returned again and again to hike its many sections on day and overnight hikes. In addition to hiking the AT and trails in the American West, the Logues have hiked in Israel, Jordan, France, Italy, Iceland, Ireland, Scotland, and England. They live in Georgia, where Frank works as an Episcopal priest and as an assistant to the bishop of Georgia; he has also served on the Appalachian Trail Conservancy’s Board of Managers. Victoria, a writer of fiction and nonfiction, recently published her fourth novel. The Logues’ other books for Menasha Ridge Press are the two-volume “Best of the Appalachian Trail: Day Hikes and Overnight Hikes” (with Leonard M. Adkins) and “The Appalachian Trail Hiker: Trail-Proven Advice for Hikes of Any Length.” Born in Florida, Nicole Blouin graduated from Appalachian State University in North Carolina, where she fell in love with the mountains. She coauthored her first book, Waterfalls of the Blue Ridge, for Menasha Ridge Press in the early 1990s and since then has written or cowritten four other outdoor guides. Nicole lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she keeps busy with freelance writing and editing and managing a rock-climbing gym.
