Hello all,
I am taking a statistics course for my MBA at UMaine and I am looking for someone to direct me to extensive raw data on the Appalachian Trail. This is a sidepiece to other research I am doing on National Parks and the outdoors but I think it would be enjoyable to add some stats from the AT.
-Where can I find the excel file they use to calculate the thru-hikers per / year and the completion rate for South/North bound hikers
- Volunteer hours logged each year would be nice to see the growth
- Information on day-hikers
- Any large data sets I would be interested on in addition to the AT and hiking. Preferably 20+ years of data.
Thank you, I emailed the AT address a few days ago and no response so I have turned here!
