Hey! Looking for hiking buddy for a Northbound hike from Springers Mountain in Georgia and headed north for 10 or 12 days. I've already hiked this before and just want to do it again, see the fall colors and enjoy the outdoors. I am 57. Carry about 30 plus lbs. I live in Cocoa, Florida. On previous hikes I usually do 8 to 12 miles a day. Anybody interested give me a reply. I am fairly flexible and can supply comfortable car and will pay for ride back to car for both of us. Looking forward to those leaves and cool weather. Kevin
