Pharr Davis set out from Mount Katahdin in Maine on June 15 and reached the top of Springer Mountain in Georgia at 3:26 p.m. Sunday.

Pharr Davis rose at 2:45 a.m. the past two days, hiking 60.2 miles Saturday and the final 36.2 miles Sunday. A crowd of more than 50 people gathered atop Springer Mountain to greet her. “I just cried,” she said. “It was such a relief.”
