'Toughest Girl in Florida'

On June 4, 2025, Cali Booth and her father, Jamie, crossed the trail’s finish line at Fort Pickens. In that moment, she officially became the youngest person in history to hike the massive trail from end-to-end—a total of 1,111 miles. As she crossed the finish line, family members and local well-wishers cheered Cali on.
