About Trevor Thomas

Trevor Thomas is an American blind hiker. As of 2022 he has hiked over 22,000 miles (35,000 km) solo. He was the first blind person to complete the Appalachian Trail on an unassisted solo hike, in 2008. He hikes with a guide dog, and uses sophisticated digital technology, emailing his route to his phone to convert to audible sections, using echo location to identify obstacles, and having a satellite beacon which updates his Facebook page with his location every 10 minutes; if he is in the wrong place or not making the expected progress, his expedition coordinator is alerted. He supports himself through speaking, writing, blogging, and sponsorship, and has set up the Team FarSight Foundation to support young blind people in outdoor activities.
