Anyone know if the falls dry up late in the summer like Yosemite?
I know they don't run off snow melt being in North GA, but I'm hiking a section in early September and debating whether or not I want to hike from AF or just start at Springer. If the falls are basically non-existent it may be somewhat anti-climatic to bother hiking them.
Also, if any of you have experiece with Hiker Hostel do you know what time I could expect to be shuttled to the trailhead the morning after my stay?
Disclaimer: This is not a trick designed to stir up a debate about whether or not the approach trail should be included in an AT hike. In fact, I don't really want anyone's opinion regarding that topic. Just need to know if the falls are falling or trickling.
