Hello all,

I'm planning a section hike from Springer to Fontana Dam with a start date of April 1. I hope to reach Fontana Dam around April 15 or 16.

I have found a person who does shuttles from either Bryson City or Fontana to Knoxville Airport which seems to be the closest airport with service back to Boston.

My question is if I have to pull off the trail before either Bryson City or Fontana, what is the best way back to Atlanta or Knoxville? If I have to pull up in Franklin, what airport is easier to get to and does anyone know of any shuttle service? I think Ron Haven offers shuttles around Franklin but don't know if he travels outside the region. Thanks

    It would be smarter to go to Chattanooga if you are in NC or Tn and catch aflight to Atlanta
