    Good times on Springer

    Unfortunatly I finally had to finish my AT hike. It was about time to finish last year's hike. Next time I will have to plan on 10 months. Springer was fantastic yesterday with temps in the 20's, clear skies, and 2 inches of snow on the ground.

    Thanks to everyone for following and helping me out while planning my hike. Now all I have to do is plan the next adventure.

    I am landing in Atlanta post trail. Hopefully now I will be able to make some of the southern campouts. If anyone has any hike recommendations, great parks to check out, or job ideas (I finally need to get one after 7 months of not working) let me know.

    Thanks. It's hard to say what tricks I learned. The biggest one is there are so many options out there for everything. Look at what everyone is doing and decide what you like best. If someone tells you there is only one way to do it or this is the best way, don't listen to anything after what they say they are using.

    Thanks, I still have to type up the last 3 entries. It was cold enough at night not to make me want to do any journaling. I'll work on uploading some cool pics onto my TJ.
