I have a question on the section southbound in Great Mokies Park from Silers Bald to Spence Field shelter. Just got off the phone with a GSMNP ranger at the reservations desk. He said he thought this was a particularly tough section. It's roughly 12 miles long and i have done all of the southern AT in sections (except this one); I think I've seen tougher sections, based on the profile. Any opinions from those who have hiked it, especially going SOBO? Thanks in advance!
