Kevin, Nicolle and Justin attended the premier of the Jester Wallis Production Film Safe and Found in NC.

UPDATE: Justin Mullins has hiked over 228 miles in 29 days. Mollie was with him for a large part section 3 and 4, but then they encountered some very cold, wet and snowy weather that became dangerous.  Mollie has chosen to stay warm indoors.

Justin has continued to brave the harsh conditions and is making great updates to the ALT FarOut app.  

NEW for 2024 are spurs to Marlinton, Black Water Falls,  Douglas Falls, new resupply points and accommodations for hikers.

You can follow and support this 311 mile quest at Justin’s “Go Fund Me Page”.

Justin in 8 inches of snow and 5 degrees starting out.  He finished this day with snow up to his knees as the wind kicked up.   WVSTA Appreciates You JUSTIN!
