Hi, I'm just starting to think about a section hike next spring/early summer. I did Springer to Hiawassee last spring and enjoyed it a lot. My general goal is to do about 80-100 miles in 7-10 days, and I will be flying in to the area since I live in Texas so I need transportation. So my question is, what would be a good section to do and why? I really like the pictures I've seen of the Grayson Highlands area, so that would be Irwin to Damascus, right? I also went to Va Tech so I was thinking maybe starting at Blacksburg, but I don't know if the trail is good in that area (Dragon's tooth is nearby, Catawba I think?)
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks
Matt
