Dale Adams, on the Trail in 1974 and 1975.
Dale hiked the Appalachian Trail from Bear Mountain Bridge to Katahdin in 1974, so his hike north from Springer in 1975 finished at Bear Mountain Bridge. He wrote a series of articles for his local newspaper, Sayre, Pa., Evening Times. The articles appeared in the paper when the paper was able to print them, so he really didn’t finish the hike in December, when his last installment was published, but in September of 1975.
