Thanks so much and I just love the info on Whiteblazes. All the input is much appreciated.
When is the best time June through August to hike the Whites and miss through hikers? Trying to select the best time so we have space for 5.
I am not sure if I would not cook if I were thru-hiking it all at one itme but I am a section hiker and have done 600 miles a few weeks at a time and I have never had a stove. This past years week...
Georgia in march, ice sleet, and a lack of switch backs but I enjoyed every minute it.
Just was there in late July. Greta Shelter I do not know how crowded it will be as we only had our group of five there. When did not get in the shelter until around 8:30 so we missed the cut off...
I take my watch as it helps me gauge the miles. Besides i need it as I get up about five times a night on the trail trying to make it to 6:00 AM.
Welcome from a section hiker from Ohio.
I have no problem with Shuttle prices and have used them often. $85 for one hiker going 25 miles is higher than I have paid but I don't my paying asking price and giving a tip to the driver. ...
No tenting in the Smokies except on approved sites for camping.
Cannot take all the fun out of the hike.
I agree and find that hikers are some of the best people.
It is as you say the Smokies so the views at that time will be great, but the weather in the Smokies is somewhat unpredictable that time of year. We did a few years from Fontana to I-40 in 5 1/2...

A canoe, a river at flood and to many national geographic shows.
Just finished a five day hike from Atkins VA to near Damascus. I have hiked it before but this time it rained everyday and almost all day except for a few brief moments of Sunshine. The local...
Use my glasses and have an old pair just for a spare.
Iti is always impossible until we start. Zig Ziglar states people who do not do step one usually do not do step 2. The more you plan, get out an hike the more the possibility becomes a reality. ...
I use Brooks Cascadia 7 for trail running this summer and have not had any problems yet. I switched from new balance this year and have used the New Balance trail runners and for many miles on the...
Thanks and thank you
Friends and I are hiking form Atkins to Damascus in August. I have done it before and the last I heard they were considering taking out Partnership Shelter? Is it still there and can you still...
Do include the bears den as it is a nice place to stay. Roller Coaster is a challenge as well but was not as difficult as I anticipated.
Hope they get the movie done. I enjoyed the book and have scene very few movies if any about hiking.
Whites this year.
Nope not yet.
