first southbounder to finish, I think ... at least there were no other entries the registers at the shelter or the summit of Springer . . .

I saw him south of Blood Mountain on Wednesday. He had another SOBO hot on his heals. There should have been two finishing Saturday.Did not catch thiers names though.

Very nice slide show. Looked like a great trip.
Somebody has to ask: Did he throw a ring into the log book slot of the Southern Terminus?

perhaps I should have asked names. Maybe it was Sauron chasing him. Could be a whole new I've been stalcked thread.
He is not the first. Tent pole finished in November before thanksgiving I think on the 13th. He started yhe 15 of June

I haven't been on the site for a little while, I come back and I'm in slide show, who knew? Seriously though, thanks that certainly brought back some memories. To the question of whether I was the first to finish, I have no idea. I started June 3 and finished on Sept. 30. 1st, 2nd, 222nd whatever, it was still an amazing trip. To the ring question, I did not have one. I did however have a red bouncy ball that I was intending to put up there. Unfortunately, I lost it somewhere in Virginia. If anyone found it, I hope it provided as much entertainment for you as it did for me.

I hiked Neil's gap to Springer in mid-November with two SOBO's - they indicated that a number of folks had finished before them.
so far the Hobbit's September 30 day holds up as the first, since that's before any date in November . . .
any other contenders? there weren't any in the registers before that date
