Addiction is a condition that results when a person ingests a substance (e.g., alcohol, cocaine, nicotine) or engages in an activity (e.g., gambling, sex, shopping) that can be pleasurable but the continuation of which becomes compulsive and interferes with ordinary responsibilities and concerns, such as work, relationships, or health.
The Appalachian Trail was completed in 1937 after more than a decade of work, although improvements and changes continue. It is maintained by 31 trail clubs and multiple partnerships, and managed by the National Park Service, United States Forest Service, and the nonprofit Appalachian Trail Conservancy.
This 16.2 mile section of the Appalachian Trail in Pennsylvania takes northbound hikers from the Susquehanna River to the Clarks Valley. The main features of this section of the AT include Peters Mountain and the nice views from Kinter View and Table Rock Overlook.
