The Google Doodle and slideshow that featured the Appalachian Trail icon was a luckier strike — it paid homage to the AT’s 55th anniversary among the original National Scenic Trails. Monday’s Google Doodle was created by artist Nate Swinehart. The Google Doodle is an occasional piece of art that adorns the homepage logo, to celebrate holidays, anniversaries and famous people in history and culture. “Today’s Appalachian Trail Google Doodle was all painted on-site!” he posted Monday. Swinehart said he hiked portions of the Appalachian Trail to create the Google Doodle and accompanying slideshow.
