Summary

Though many serious hikers know that Emma "Grandma" Gatewood became the first woman to solo thru-hike the Appalachia Trail in 1955 at the age of 67, they really don't know the rest of the story. Most people don't know that after she hiked the Appalachian Trail the first time, she went back and did it two more times. Most people don't know that she also hiked the Oregon Trail in 1959 or that she was truly a visionary of the ultra-light hiking movement. Most people don't know that she raised 11 children or that she survived an abusive relationship. Most people don't know that by the time she retired, Emma had hiked more than 10,000 miles
