    It's been a while since I've been, but I think the water is all desalinated, so I'd suggest taking some powders or other flavorings to put in the water. Beautiful hike for sure.

    I use a 16oz Nalgene.

    It's a little heavier, but it's also sturdier, I know if the lid is on or off, and the mouth of the bottle is wider than a gatorade bottle.

    I have a set of camp clothes that keeps my sleeping bag from getting too funky, but I don't do any laundry or wash-off. Maybe a bandana of water across my face each evening.

    All of this response is spot on. I'd add two things:

    Be flexible. On my first trip with my daughter, we were out 6 nights, and only on the first night did we stay at the planned location. Play...

    Yes on sleep clothes. I sweat too much in the summer to not want something dry and unstinked for sleeping, and I like having a dry set of clothes in winter also.
    No on town clothes

    This is different from Rudolph though. People were hunting for Rudolph; Ted was in plain sight but was not known to be a killer until his brother came forward

    I don't think he spent five years in the woods. Based on how I look after just one week out, he was way too well-groomed when captured to be out there full time.

    He was either breaking into...

    Thanks!

    That sounds like a very possible option. I've seen the 136 trailhead and thought that might work. I'll hopefully do it in warmer weather!

    Somewhat safe because it is at the county line so it's a turn-around for cops. That said, parking at Amicalola(SP) and
