I did gooch gap yesterday. How is the road from there? Thanks.

Do do I keep driving past gooch gap on the gravel road and I'll eventually get there?

Hi, Everyone. I drove to hightower today, but it was hairy. I took double gap to fs58 to winding stairs to hightower. I didn't want to go back through that way, so I took Rocky creek to 60 to get...

I'll enjoy the ride after seeing the falls and stopping for apples! I have a SUV, but it's 17 years old, and from the Triangle in NC I've been driving back and forth from the trail all spring and...

Sounds good. Thanks again.

I don't mean to drive you all crazy, but I just spoke to the forest service and they recommended that I head up Nimblewill Church Gap Rd off 52, right on USFS28, left on USFS77, hard left on USFS42. ...

Thank you all. I have the google maps downloaded already, so even without a signal I should be OK. You are the best!

Thank you. After all these miles he's pretty exhausted, and would prefer not to take the approach trail. It's more work for me, but he's doing the hard work day to day!

I'd love to know which way is best. google maps is telling me to go around the southern end of the park, then north, and then come in from the west. But in all the driving I've done for my husband...

I'm feeling a little better about it now. Unfortunately I have reservations in Dahlonega that can't be cancelled to stay in Ellijay.
Thanks, everyone.

My husband is on the last leg of his flipflop thru-hike and we expect him to arrive at Springer around Oct 8. Does anyone know the condition of 42 to parking for Springer? I have a SUV, but it's...

Peakbagger, thank you for the detailed and concise response. And so early in the morning! I will copy and paste your post and message it to Hank, who is already on his way. Eric at the hostel gave...

A question...It looks like all the bail out trails in this section go to Success Pond Rd. Is that correct? Also, ARambler, where would the pickup be if he slack packed the 8 miles north of Rt 2? ...

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. He is at the hostel on Rt 2 and will continue on tomorrow morning. He is a slow and careful hiker. There has been an awful lot of rain this spring, making...

I forgot to mention that he's a former Vietnam marine and retired army. Just to give you a little idea of his determination to complete the Trail.

My husband who is thru-hiking nobo has made it from Harper's Ferry to Gorham. He is alone. Since he is headed into a rather dangerous terrain, the Mahoosics, I wondered if anyone is hiking this...

Hank, the old guy, nobo started in Harpers Ferry April 5. Now in Presidentials. MT Washington yesterday.
Rain has been tough this spring, but still plugging along. Appreciate the info and advice...
