Terry and I will be doing the section hike described below. We will be day hiking using our cargo van to carry our food/gear. We will hike regardless of weather conditions following the schedule diligently. We plan to camp near the road crossings, only going into town once for dinner/resupply (Hiawassee)*.
Both thru- and section-hikers interested in this type of hiking are invited to come along. Class of 2007 thru-hikers would have to have day packs (the van would carry your backpacks) which we would then mail back to your home when we leave around the Tellico Gap/Wesser area**.
There would be no expected payments for this service. No alcohol, smoking, illegal drugs, pets or blue-blazing allowed.
Contact me through my e-mail below (not this website) if you are interested.
