'Green Tunnel' = Hiker Porn! The Appalachian Trail in Five Minutes!

Spotted this very zen video on a friend's facebook posting. No, it's not actually adult-themed aside from simply having some random adults who are doing nothing but hiking. As an avid hiker, I dream of doing the Appalachian Trail some day but if I ever do I figure I will have to train rigorously for at least 6 months prior and I think I'd like to go with a friend or two.
