Well that looks like crap.

Second try:

Jordan Trail: A trek through history

(CNN) Picture the Appalachian Trail in California, or the Camino de Santiago in Spain.
Then draw a route through more than 10,000 years of history, covering Neolithic ruins, Biblical sites, one of the New 7 Wonders of the World, and russet landscapes that wouldn’t look out of place on Mars. That’s the Jordan Trail, and only a slice of it.

Looks awesome!  Too bad about that neighbor to the north tho. I’m not going anywhere near there.

Guess they never heard of the PCT. Even worse CNN thinks the AT is in CA the way it’s written.

I know, they bungled that headline. But interesting piece.

CNN corrected the bungled story opening:

Picture the Appalachian Trail in the United States …
