The 2x6 inch white blaze Is original the Long Trail it was adopted for use by the Appalachian Trail. The Long Trail is the oldest long-distance hiking trail in the United States, constructed between 1910 and 1930 by the Green Mountain Club. The Appalachian Trail was conceived atop Stratton Mt. Vermont by Benton MacKaye, a forester who wrote his original plan-called "An Appalachian Trail" The Appalachian Trail was completed in 1937. It does get confusing at "Maine Junction" where the Long Trail heads north and the Appalachian Trail heads east, just north of the Inn on the Long Trail, on RT4 where both trails are white blazed. I love Windows to the Wild. Thank you Willem Lange and NHPTV. George Sarasota, FL
Great video, Devils Gulch is one of my favorites of the The Long Trail. I thinks it nicer than the video can portray. It is lush, with some great stone step work by the GMC. As many of you watching know (the host at production time did not), The White Blaze was used on the Long Trail BEFORE the Appalachian Trail. The AT was modeled after the Long Trail. Which is America's oldest established hiking trail.
My sister gave me a set of dvds w Will narrating and leading hikes and Ive watched them many times. This is equally awesome. Thank you. 🥾🥾
Loved this! The humor and the quality information was all wonderful!
1980 End2Ender. A group of us 11th graders from Richmond Virginia completed The Long Trail in 32 days. Great adventure !
Thank you for a lovely video!
I hike every weekend in Massachusetts. I came across this video and found it a joy to watch. I think I'll put Vermont on my list of places to go to.

Will seems like a great guy! I hope to hit the Long Trail this year.
What a pleasant lady Jen Roberts is.
Gotta love Will giving the producer some guff for being a goof.
“Max, you go first”.. Hahaha
