Matthew ‘Squeaky’ Hazley finished his calendar Triple Crown. He hiked the PCT, CDT, and AT each end-to-end from May 4 to December 29. That’s 7500+ miles in ~240 days.
Another hiker who went up yesterday to meet him and his family on Springer Mtn. posted some photos of the end here. A good audio interview can be found on TrailCast, when he was about 300 miles short of finishing. And there’s another interview transcript on WhiteBlaze from earlier this month when he was back in Virginia. Also more info and photos that his parents kept updated in his TrailJournal.
Pretty amazing!
