Full Moon over GA

“Im working on a 10 day hike this May..The whole section of the AT..Nothing is written in stone yet but the starting point is Springer and the stopping point is Deep Gap USFS 71..Anyone interestred for whole or part just let me know..Oh the dates are May 12-21...”

“If theres enough people interested I could change the dates to where a weekend hike over Blood can be done..”

“Blood Mountain RULES!!!!!

Georgia is very tough but it's great fun!”

“Can walkindude get a witness?


Yes he can.

Georgia is tough and fun. What I want to know is, is the next section through NC any easier? lol....”

“i still gotta do three forks falls to Dick's Creek Gap. that might be the time. bout 60 miles or so? i think? not sure right now”

“I dont know..I skipped that part and went to Virginia..But its all good..”

“North Carolina is pretty tough too but I think Georgia is harder.”

“Duct tape..its 62.8 miles..Iloved the three forks area..Had a bear tear up the campsite right next to me..”

“I've never seen a bear in Georgia yet. Saw one in North Carolina though.”

“i've done from dick's creek gap into nc. once you get into nc it's tough for a while.
i havent' been on the AT a whole lot but the steepest section i've seen was in the "welcoming hills" of north carolina coming out of ga.”

“there's a deep gap in georgia before dick's creek gap and also one in north carolina, correct?”

“Yep...two Deep Gaps...”

“WD...bears are becoming an increasing problem in GA. FG and I had an encounter with one, plus there's one who lives on or near Springer who has learned how to get food bags off the bear cable system.”

“The Approach Trail is a must do if you've never done it. I love the first part just going to the top of Ammicolola Falls! Right off the bat it kicks your ass.”

“I did the stairs to the top of Amicalola a few weeks ago. Definitely an ass-kicker, even without a pack!”

“Yeah, "Amicalola", that's what I ment.”

“did the approach trail last new years. stayed on springer that night.
the next morning i made it all the way to three forks before prowler and i told an older couple they could take us back to our car or we would just take their car and drive ourselves.
it's amazing how much better shape i'm in after 1 year.”

“I made it to Three Forks the first day and then to Gooch Gap the second day. We actually camped in the meadow next to USFS 42 cause the shelter was full.”

“hehe, it's so funny to think about that trip now.
it was my first "real" hiking trip meaning more than 5 miles in 1 day. when we came to that shelter at the bottom of springer it was already dark and town dawg says "i think we're gonna keep going." i thought i was gonna tear his head off. i wanted to lie down. i was playing catch up all day, they'd be ending their break just as i caught up, and i was just getting over being sick for almost 2 weeks. and he says we're gonna keep going.
at least he made me dinner that night:)”

“....this was going to be a "Jerbear is coming to GA" thread....”

“LOL @ Laqtis!!!”

“Well I was concerned about FULL MOON and TILT!!

ewwwwwwwwwww!!”

“Ive done the approach trail..Noticed its not a starting point ??

Buddy and I had a blast till the rains came pouring down and little things like water filter quitting on me, started happening..this year will be different..first off no Buddy =( And Ill be in more shape..

I have always wondered if I had another person along if I would have continued on or not..hmmm”

“LMAO..The reason behind the full moon is that it is on the 15th..

I have always wanted to night hike during a full moon..im hoping it will be clear..and perhaps Jerbear will be along..theres always a full moon with him along..”

“Ya he likes to show his ass off alot!

“And what a cute one too.. ;)”

“I don't know about that!

8O”

“lol..guess not..You need to hike with him more..What is it about men showing their butts off?? Guess if you got it flaunt it..
Maybe you should take up mooning CMB..goodness knows you got it ;)”

“Now that would be a new job!

How much does it pay?

“I can't believe it took this long for the thread to degenerate.

“thank you....thank you very much....”

“A typical Evergreen thread Dude..Im not takin serious..lol
