The Appalachian trail is the longest hiking only footpath in the world spanning from Maine to Georgia. It is estimated that three million people visit the trail each year. Back in 1990, Molly Larue and Geoff Hood began their hike on the Appalachian trail. Molly, an outward-bound instructor and Geoff, an experienced rock climber were fully prepared for the 2100-mile journey. The young couple was about halfway through their hike when they stopped at one of the back country shelters along the trail to rest. They and their families confident in their progress and that they’d see it through to the end. And if it wasn’t for a grave encounter with evil, they likely would have.
