i love the hotsprings area, i dont know if i could get off work that long, i might could join for 3 days or so if that would be cool
Would not be able to make a 5 day trip that time of year.

Will do. Plans are not finalized, but will be shortly. Would love to have anyone along. We plan on knocking down some miles, but it is easy to do in that area with all of the awesome scenery taking your mind off of things. More to come....

check out www.tehcc.org were alsways doin section hikes .
A friend and I will be doing 50 miles or so, from Iron Mtn Gap to Dennis Cove (Kincora) starting March 15th over our spring break. It is a small section I missed back in 05 and I'm picking it up.
This is what I was thinking as well, but I would need to do the week of 03/15. I've got something posted here: http://www.thebackpacker.com/trips/trip/1654.php
