Hey all. On or around the 21st of October (2005) I will be transiting through Georgia on my way back to the DC area. I plan to detour to Springer Mtn. and do an overnight. I have a couple of questions...

1). Is there parking? Will I have to hike the approach, or can I park at the top?

2) If I do the approach, does that mean I'll be overnighting at the top of Springer, or is there even a shelter up there?

3) How do I get to Springer? Growing up my family had a farm in Dahlonega, so directions from there would suffice.
