March 12 start from USFS 42 to springer and then back to stop at Hawk Mountain Shelter for the night.
March 13 start from Hawk Mountain Shelter about 9 AM Intention was to make Justus Creek or Gooch Mountain Shelter. Ended at Cooper Gap because of dehydratrion issues.
March 14 from Cooper Gap to Gooch Mountain shelter.
March 15 Gooch Mountain Shelter to 1 mile past Woody Gap by 4 pm.
So short answer is that it took me approximately 2 and a half days to reach Woody Gap.
The next day I left form Blood Mountain Shelter and instead made it to Neels Gap due to weather issues.
Neels Gap is doable in 3 1/2 to 4 days of easy walking.
Thats' my story and I'm sticking to it.
