Thanks for the info. That sounds like a great idea, I'd love to hike the start of the trail. Just wanted to ask you a couple follow up questions...
I know the elevation is high=colder temps and possible sleet and snow, do either of you guys have any experience around this area and time of year? Just wanted to get a better idea of climate and how to prepare.
Also, my plan was to start 50 miles out and work my way back to Springer. Any thoughts on that plan or do you think it is smarter to start at Springer and work our way out? (Not sure if it makes a difference but...We're driving down and need to park at our finish and take a shuttle to where we'll beginning.)T
Thanks again so much for both of your replies, should be a great time!
