[at-l] First Celebrated Trekker/famous backpackers and hikers

[TRich@xxxxxxxx (Rich, Timothy D.)]

Good Afternoon,

Joshua and his bunch would have made pretty good section or thruhikers -
hike around for seven days and then head straight into town at
Jericho...(Joshua 6)

Joshua and Moses both hiked in sandals, except when on holy ground...

And Joshua (Joshua 3) or Moses (Exodus 14) would be great hiking companions
at the Kennebec crossing - no need for Steve the Ferry Man's replacement...

Take Care,

Tim

I don't know how hard his travels were on the environment but you can't call
Jesus a "leave no trace" hiker. :-)
