Scott Rogers (born October 4, 1968 in Milledgeville, Georgia) is the first above-the-knee amputee to complete the 2,174 mile Appalachian Trail.[1]

The Bionic Hiker

Rogers became an amputee following an accident with a shotgun on Memorial Day 1998.[2]

Several media outlets, including CNN, Associated Press, and NBC, reported extensively on his 2004 hike. Duncan Mansfield, AP writer from Knoxville, Tennessee coined the term "bionic hiker",[3]

On the trail, hikers knew him simply as "One Leg".

Rogers now resides in the East Tennessee.
