    EDIE LITTLEFIELD SUNDBY THE MISSION WALKER
    COAST TO COAST OLD SPANISH TRAIL AUTO HIGHWAY WALK

    Edie Littlefield Sundby became “THE MISSION WALKER” when she walked the 1600-mile El Camino Real de las Californias mission trail through Baja Mexico to Northern California in 2015. Feeling the need to walk and breathe after the 2020 year of pandemic separation and isolation she dreamt of walking the 2,817-mile Old Spanish Trail auto highway paved in the 1920s from “mission to mission” - San Diego, California to St. Augustine, Florida. This dream is coming true as she leaves San Antonio Friday morning May 7th, 2021, beginning the adventure across the Texas portion of the OST heading toward the Atlantic Ocean.
    Without a donkey or campervan for essential camping gear, THE MISSION WALKER will use a Swedish Trionic Veloped Trek along the OST.

    You can follow her on her on the OST Facebook Group.
