I wanted to do an overnighter (out and back) with a friend next week on the approach trail but read that the spring is dry at the top of Springer. So now I'm thinking about a loop hike with the BMT and AT starting at the parking lot on 42. We would then head up to Springer to catch the view and then backtrack to the BMT and take that to a campsite near Long Creek Falls. The next day we could take the AT back to the parking lot. I've done the BMT several years ago and I'm trying to remember where the intersection of the AT and BMT is near Long Creek Falls. Do I backtrack on the BMT to the intersection of the AT that would take me back to Springer? I think they share the same tread in that area but I can't remember where the intersection is?
