i've moved my departure back from feb. to march 8th or 9th.
how is the condition of Duncan Ridge Rd. (FS Road) from GA 60 north to Wildcat Gap? Is it drivable in 2WD? I'd like to hike Coosa Bald starting as close as I can get.

considering hiking in hawaii - mainly oahu and kauai. i spent a week on oahu in late november and since i returned, i've been obsessed with reading about more trails, peaks,...
i also had the zirkel. and i completely forgot to mention the zipper. that was probably the biggest reason i returned it. the zipper is absolutely terrible.
a CCC stone lookout tower at the summit converted to observation tower awaits at the summit...:-?
i've tried this too. the wad of bag/pad combo gets huge and even more irritating to cram in a stuff sack than the annoyance of putting the pad in the bag every night.
i think the hostel is in NC
it's a great idea and one i bought into for about a year. but it's not perfect and it's not for everybody. i found out it wasn't for me.

i'm looking for the name or trail names of two 2009 twin brother southbounders from north carolina. they were due to finish on nov. 7 at springer. i met them near shuckstack in the smokies at last...
i'm glad to see someone finally suggest this. i don't think most people realize the amount of work that goes into producing a book. too often it seems that people see writing a book as a method of...
i've heard about this a lot before, and next spring i'm actually looking forward to seeing/hearing it first hand.
does this guy not have a job? seems like he devotes a lot of time to this....
try the laurel falls trail.
also the Chimney Tops Trail.
or the Alum Cave Trail to Inspiration Point Alum Cave Bluffs. All these hikes are 5 mi. or less, though they all gain elevation. the...
looks like they found him, so all is well. luckily turned out to just be a miscommunication of itinerary and dead cell phone.

or she's to young for him? :eek:
FWIW, the A. in A. Rufus Morgan stands for Albert, a la Albert Mountain (lookout tower). Albert Siler (as in Siler Bald, named for Rufus's greatgrandfather, William Siler) was Rufus's grandfather...

AWOL, i'm looking forward to it. you should know that your Appalachian Pages has been on my bedside table for several months now and i pick it up almost nightly either loosely planning, or more...
hey volleypc, i've followed your blog for months now. did you finish? i didn't see any summit photo or pictures from maine.
and where in NC are you from?
and i second the avoiding both the apple house trailhead and parking at its trailhead.
i'll be carrying a lot of maps on my thru next year not because i need them, but because i love maps. instead of reading at night, i look at maps. i'm addicted to them. i'll have a print out of a...
