I'll be there!
We also only did a 110 mile section but I don't think we would have had issues on a thru except with the food as the hiker hunger set in
We shared the tent, cookset, water filter and the first aid kit and camara as well. We also shared food. Neither of us eat much so we would split a packet of ramen or pasta sides or mac and cheese....
I have the iPhone 5 and I thought it was great on the trail. It takes great pictures, the zoom does leave a little to be desired but if you zoom in to the picture after you've taken it, it looks...
There was a guy we ran in to in mid may who was followed by a bear from the campsites at neel's gap to the covered arch part next to mountain crossings. He'd hung everything, including his pack, woke...
Chupacabra!!!!
Funny you mention that because I have been avoiding this all week! I'm quite sure I will be sending home some things in Suches.
Should I bring gloves or is that overkill?
Tomorrow I head to Springer to start what I hope will be the first of many section hikes. I will be on trail for a month and I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little nervous. This is probably the biggest...
I was hoping someone could give me an idea of about what temperatures and weather to expect during the day and at night in May.
For the Springer --> Hot Springs portion of the trail.
Mainly...
I'd have a hard time trusting it
All expense aside, I just mean that there is no way it actually works that well.
WAtch the first video. This thing cannot possibly be for real.

Yea I've used it a couple of times. I keep it in a bag when it's not in the tent.
We should get there around the beginning of June. And the more I think about it, the more I realize that it would be stupid not to call ahead. I just thought that since anything could happen and we...
I took a pillow case for one of those body pillows (you know, the big long ones) and put a couple of layers of that eggcrate foam stuff in it. It's pretty light, and very comfortable. It doesn't roll...
Ok thanks,
Does anyone know if you are able to get reservations for the Smokies in person before entering the park or right when you enter rather than going online or calling?
Thanks so much for the help guys! I was really hoping to not have to replace my sleeping bag but I think I am not going to have that kind of luck :(
Thanks! I will :)
I don't remember how I stumbled on it, but I've been reading your blog! Good luck! I'm sure you guys will make it!
Can anyone tell me what the average nighttime temperatures are in the Springer --> Hot Springs part of the trail in June and July? I've been looking online but not having any luck.
Judging from the website that looks like a pretty good book! I'll be checking it out for sure.
Thanks!
I will certainly be getting one next year before we leave so I have one that's up to date. I'm assuming they re-do these yearly like the data book...
Yea, I have a copy of the 2011 data book, but it was kind of vague. Just listed a road. I'm not really sure where this road leads, but apparently there are groceries on it. I will definitely look...
