THE APPALACHIAN TRAIL By Arthur Perkins Chairman Board of Managers, Appalachian Trail Conference The Appalachian Trail is best described in the language of the constitution of the Appalachian Trail Conference, organized to carry out this project, in which its purpose is stated to be "to promote, construct and maintain a connected trail to be called the Appalachian Trail, running as far as practicable, over the summits of the mountains and through the wild lands of the Atlantic Seaboard and adjoining states, from Maine to Georgia, to be supplemented by a system of primitive camps at proper intervals, so as to render accessible for tramping, camping, and other forms of primitive travel and living, the said mountains and wild lands, and as a means of conserving and developing, within this region, the primeval environment as a natural resource." The idea of such a trail was first suggested in 1925 by Mr. Benton MacKaye, then a member of the United States Forestry Service, and an organization was effected in Washington in that year called the Appalachian Trail Conference to carry but the project. It was not possible to make much progress at first, but within the last year or two interest in the plan has much increased and considerable progress in carrying it out has been made. A reorganization of the Conference was effected so as to make it more of a federation of the various mountaineering clubs, and State and National Parks and Forests through whose territory the trail will lie, somewhat of the nature of the New England Trail Conference, which has been so successful in co-ordinating the trail interests in that region. The clubs cover nearly the entire route from the Appalachian Mountain Club, whose trails extend into Maine, to the Potomac Appalachian Trail Club, whose territory extends to central Virginia. 54
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

In 1926, the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club began to print an annual handbook that outlined scheduled hikes for each month of the year, including winter. This 1931 handbook was collected by George Masa (1881-1933), a photographer active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Smoky Mountains Hiking Club was formed after a group of outdoor enthusiasts hiked up to Mount LeConte in October 1924. Enjoying the spectacular views, the group returned to establish a formal hiking club to sponsor regularly-scheduled hikes into the Great Smoky Mountains.
