details – TOP 7 THOUSAND-MILE TREKS
Actually, I am quite impressed with their list. It’s gutsy and informed. That walk in Argentina would be FANTASTIC.
I’d like to subscribe to Adventure Journey … but they have no RSS feed. Ah ha, Google Reader could not discover an RSS feed … BUT, it’s right there on the top of the page. (if I had only looked.)
Thanks MadMardigan.


Actually, they do have an RSS feed, both for the magazine as a whole (on their main page at adventurejourney.net – just click Subscribe at the top, on the right) and for the Top 7 department (on the Top 7 page, again on the top right).
Thanks MadMardigan. I’ve updated the original post.
