    Default Finishing Georgia this weekend!

    I know it's not a HUGE accomplishment, but I will have finished Georgia after this weekend!

    Trip 1 was last March 23-25: Springer Mountain > Woody Gap
    Trip 2 was last June 1-3: Woody Gap > Unicoi Gap


    This 3rd trip will take us from Unicoi Gap into NC! Its amazing what I've learned already about backpacking, etc.

    if you want to check my attempt at a journal, go to AT journal

    Congrats!

    I still have a section from Dick's Creek Gap to Wayah Gap to do and it's KILLING me. I hope to get down there in May and finish up that section.
