Jennifer Pharr Davis fell in love with hiking as a
young child exploring the trails of her grandparents farm outside
Charlotte, NC. In pursuing her increased passion for the trails,
Jennifer has now completed over 8,000 miles of trails, including
the Pacific Crest Trail, the Long Trail, and two traverses of the
Appalachian Trail. She is currently the fastest woman to hike the
Appalachian Trail, completing the trek in 57 days and averaging 38
miles a day. She has shared her many experiences on the trail
through Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine and Away.com. In 2009,
Jennifer returned to Charlotte and continued her love affair with
the North Carolina piedmont hiking by writing Best Easy Day
Hikes Charlotte. Jennifer is the owner and founder of Blue
Ridge Hiking Co.
