Appalachian Trail

On this episode of What's in a Name?, Mike Flynn returns with another exploration of Lehigh Valley history, this time looking at the origins of the name Bake Oven Knob — one of the area's most amazing vista points overlooking the Blue Mountain Ridge near Germansville, just off of the Appalachian Trail.

John Pearce sits down with Reverend Sherry Blackman from The Presbyterian Church of the Mountain to talk about her book Tales from the Trail: Stories from the Oldest Hiker Hostel on the Appalachian Trail, which details hikers' experiences and adventures up Route 611 along the Delaware River.
