Buckeye Trail

Peter and Joyce Cottrell (pictured here with BTA President Pat Hayes and Mary Hayes at a lunch in their honor 8/10/09)
Congratulations! The Cottrell's completed their 11 week thru-hike of the 1400 mile Buckeye Trail on August 9 in Richmond Dale, OH near Chillicothe. They came through Milford in May 2009. A unique aspect of the circular Buckeye Trail is that they were able to drive in from New Hampshire and park their car, take a long walk, and arrive back at their car. That is not a typical convenience of a long distance hike. The Cottrell's were the first couple to complete a hike of the American Discovery Trail a few years ago and were celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Buckeye Trail with this hike.
