Harvey Sutton, or “Little Man,” as he is known on the Appalachian Trail, won’t have long to bask in the glory of hiking its full length. After all, he starts kindergarten Friday.
At 5 years old, Harvey is one of the youngest—and the latest of several youngsters in recent years—to complete the trail, after tagging along with his parents over more than 2,100 miles in 209 days.
