I am hoping to do a 10-14 day hike next May or July with my 13 year old son somewhere in the middle of the AT. I am just working out the logistics but wanted to get some thoughts from the folks on WB. I am working my way north with small sections starting 2 years ago at Amicalola and now just short of the NOC in NC. I would consider picking up from there but getting to and from the trailheads and the restrictions in the Smokies make me think twice. My son joined me for 4 days last year and did great in pretty adverse conditions. We are both ready to go for a little longer time and further distance. I am thinking about the Shenandoah section starting near I-64 and ending at or near Harpers Ferry, WV. Or vice versa. Airports for us (and my wife and other son who would meet us when done) seem very convenient (Charlottseville and Dulles). The terrain looks very easy compared to N. GA or S. NC. I guess I am looking for some confirmation that this is a good section for us to tackle from the people that have done it. If not, any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Gary
