Grandma Gatewood Took a Walk
by Catherine Bush
In 1955 at the age of 67, Emma “Grandma” Gatewood told her children she was “going for a walk.” and set out with her duffel bag, shower curtain (to keep dry) and a pair of Keds sneakers to walk the Appalachian Trail. Two thousand miles later, she became the first woman to solo hike 14 states from Georgia to the top of Mt. Katahdin in Maine. Don’t miss the New England premiere of this true and inspiring adventure celebrating the resiliency of the human spirit and the courage required to walk into the unknown.
