Another question that it helps if you've walked it before.
My wife met me at Hot Springs and we rented a canoe from an outfitter and spent a couple hours paddling this easy river to the take out point.

Astro, thanks for the advice. I have hiked from Amicalola to Neel Gap in 2015. Our shuttle driver, Ron, advised that it was very dry and water sources were frequently dry or iffy. He advised that we take the Len Foote trail, which we did. My eldest and…

I am planning for what I am calling a HASH hike beginning in Late February. Half @$% Section Hike. I will be 62, and my job has offered me a 3 month personal leave of absence. Perhaps they too can see that I am growing older, and it is time. I believe I…
I am planning for what I am calling a HASH hike beginning in Late February. Half @$% Section Hike. I will be 62, and my job has offered me a 3 month personal leave of absence. Perhaps they too can see that I am growing older, and it is time. I believe I can hike from Amicalola to Harpers Ferry in three months. About 250 miles of this will be going over familiar trail from earlier section hikes. I can receive the same amount of leave for the next summer to hopefully finish the trail from Harpers Ferry to Katahdin. I have the gear I will need, with the addition of a recently purchased 0 degree sleeping bag. I am seeking advice from those of you who have done long hikes. Resupply Boxes, Bounce Box, none? My longest backpacking journey was a month on the Ice Age Trail in my home state.
So it's Friday afternoon of Memorial Day weekend, the traditional start of the summer season. They are predicting warm sunny weather for the whole weekend - very unMichigan-like , so I decided it would be the perfect time to break out for the first time this year the Bigfoot and palm tree shirt.

On February 27th, 28th and 29th I did a two night out and back trip from Wolf Pit Road trail-head to Table Rock mountain and back. In typical cafe fashion I planned this trip while driving 80 mph east on I-40 heading back from the Smokies. I stopped at a McDonald's to borrow some free Wifi to get a picture of a the trails and away I went. Going up Wolf Pit road in my 2002 Honda Accord was risky with the amount of ice and snow on the road. The final hill going down to the…
On February 25th and 26th I did a nice loop in the Smokies from Big Creek Ranger Station parking lot to Deep Gap along the AT south of Mt. Cammerer fire tower. There was about 6 to 8 inches of snow while going up. I stealth camped due to the amount of snow coming in and the next day went down the Big Creek trail. Overnight there was another 6 to 8 inches of snow and freezing fog.
Nestle Nido and Breakfast Essential Based Milkshakes
Nestle Nido is a full fat powdered milk which when combined with water makes a high calorie milk. I add Nestle Carnation Breakfast Essentials to add flavor and additional calories.
