plans change!
Need ideas for 2-3 night mountain hike, in maybe North GA, SC, Southern parts of NC ....and not on the AT. A loop would likely be best. Not making huge miles....
SO I've been planning to do a trail hike this summer, maybe with my son, for a week. Leaning to do the AT, Springer to Neel, but in a more recent thread thinking about tying together with some rafting....
BUT it looks like that might be out
Looks like I may have other plans for the summer now crashing my hopes for a mountain hike. Also, I thought my kid's spring break would be a family activity, but due to commitments that can't happen till the latter half of the week....
so
I find myself with vacation time off & possibly with a little time to do a hike in the mountains, although shorter than the week I had been thinking, at the end of this month.
the loose idea is....drive up from N. Florida Saturday, 2-3 nights backpacking, then drive mid week to meet the family someplace for some city fun...maybe Charleston, maybe Asheville.... I have no idea.
But I know I want to stay away from the AT this time of year. No sense in adding to the pressure on that ecosystem!
Suggestions?
