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.
These must be seen to be believed! The famous Appalachian Trail runs parallel to Skyline Drive, and 101 miles lie in beautiful Shenandoah National Park, with 500 miles of hiking trails and plenty of wildlife and Outdoor Adventure Programs. Skyland in the park offers quaint cabins to spacious suites with spectacular vistas.
