Doing the Foot Hills Trail in a couple of weeks, can anyone tell me if the trail is well marked, I'm wondering if I should take a GPS? Thanks.

Awesome trail and well marked I doubt you will need a gps but I would get the Foothills Trail Conference map and guide book.

+1 to Grit's comments. Uh, GPS, NO. The gudebook trail descriptions and map has some slight alternate routes that are worth considering.

When are you going to be out there? Maybe I'll see you. I'm doing a FT thru again, and some Congaree NP paddling and hiking in a few wks.

Gonna extend the FT thru with an added 15 mile section so that the total comes out to about 92 miles. Gonna do it in a planned 3 day trek.
