I agree with Cari's comments on why Katz accompanies Bryson. It's definitely true that he is now trying to substitute substance addiction with meaningful relationships. As Bryson and Katz used to be close, this excursion is the perfect oppurtunity for Katz to form such a relationship. I also agree with David's opinion that Katz is going with Bryson on the AT because he is attempting to become a new person and leave his horrible past of drugs behind.
Matthew's point built on what others were saying about how Katz's motivation was a desire to change from his past. I agreed with what Matthew said when he stated that hiking the AT with Bryson served as a goal for Katz. Since his life has drastically changed, it is safe to surmise that he is looking for a sort of direction in it. This difficult trip along thousands of miles of trail will most certainly keep him occupied for a very long time.
