Here's what hikers are saying about Scavenger Hike Adventures and Mountain Journal

"I just wanted to let you guys know that we bought your Scavenger Hike Adventures Journal book and we also got you both to sign our book at the Welcome Center at the Smoky Mountains.  We just wanted to let you know that we had an awesome time on Adventure #2.  We got so much out of that hike because there is so much history there that if it wasn't for the book, we would have just passed on by.  Oh, and seeing that cabin and barn was awesome!  My kids, which are seven and nine, loved it so much they were begging to come back to Tennessee to do some more hiking.  Well, we are.  We are heading back to Gatlinburg and we are going to bring our book with us and do two more trails.  We also encouraged friends of ours to use your book when they visited Gatlinburg and they did and loved it so much they are also returning back!  Thanks for doing this book and giving a new meaning to hiking." - Debbie Norris, Indianapolis
