By Suzie Riedel (Bossbae) & Illustrated by Robert N. Riedel (Birdcall)
Experience the Appalachian Trail like never before. The Appalachian Trail Field Journal is a living work of art — written and painted along the trail itself. Each page combines Bossbae’s heartfelt daily journal entries with Birdcall’s hand-painted illustrations, capturing the beauty, solitude, and spirit of a true thru-hike.
✨ What makes this special:
Every painting was created on the trail — in the moment.
Written in real time, documenting the adventure as it unfolds.
A rare collaboration between two artists walking the same 2,000+ miles.

Can’t wait for your book to come out. Love watching you both on YouTube.
As consumers of your content it's great how your focus on the human element of traveling the ribbon of trail comes together with your relentless quest for art especially, but not only, when it comes alive in the small details of nature. I've been following your youtube blog since the beginnings on the Arizona trail ... same year I was out there.
Not sure what I’m reviewing but the pre-order process has been very easy.
Great job guys! Prayers for your continued success
I liked the ability to secure the journal for this first edition with signatures. I also liked the idea of supporting Bossbae and Birdcall
