effective range of a 30-06 projectile is about 1 1/4 miles - so you can be shot by someone who never saw you and will never know
that being said the AT corridor is of coarse heavily wooded so travel / risk is highly reduced
the real question for wearing blaze orange is why not? no good reasons not to
