I'm trying to plan a section hike for early spring in North Carolina. Do you recommend any section over another? Favorite sections? Depending on schedules probably a 3-5 day hike is what we'll be able to do.

Thanks for your help.

Standing Bear Farm to Hot Springs is about 32 miles and a nice little hike. Park in Hot Springs and get Daniel or Wayne from BMO to shuttle you to Standing Bear.

3 days: Davenport Gap to Hot Springs, or Sam's Gap to Erwin.

5 days: US 19-E south to Erwin. This is an awesome hike over the balds. But the first day's climb will get your attention.

Standing indian loop is a great hike in the spring. And very easy to arrange logistically.

Also consider Mt rogers Virginia, only about 2.5 hours from Huntersville.
