Top 3 section hikes in GA according to Mountain Crossings.

probably a coincidence that all 3 hikes recommend stopping at mountain crossings for snacks and/or resupply.

actually, i don't have any problems with springer to neels or springer to deep gap, nc as i've done em both and recommended both to others.

my complaint lies with the woody gap to tesnatee gap. i don't think the best 16 mile section in georgia involves sleeping in a shelter, is in a no fire zone, has no water, and during the spring requires you to have a bear canister. and i say that having camped on top of blood many times.

All your writings are very well done...if I didn't know better I'd think you was a teacher.

That is the first I remember having to toss my poles ahead and use my hands to climb.

Unless you count having to climb back up the wet rocks on Blood Mountain when my son and I missed the double blaze to turn back into the woods.
