    Thanks for taking us along. I loved your map reading pause. You could have used it for a floatation device during the rain storm.

    I will have to get up to that section ASAP.

    Haha, loved it! Thanks for the laugh tonight.
    That's a beautiful area, rain or not.

    Yes, I’m with TallPaul, and the others, thanks for the map reading laugh, firebird! Oh, and your hammock looked a heck of a lot better than that tent!

    A man has to stay up on his map reading skills. Thanks for following along.

    I really do find that traveling south bound on the Georgia sections are a bit easier that going north.
    That part of the trail is some of my favorite.
    Spoken like a true Georgian. I've heard a lot of people say that SB is easier in Ga. I was hoping to get a better shot of Brasstown Bald than the one I had but when I got to the top of Tray Mtn I couldn't see 20 feet. Thanks for watching.

    Yeah, I could've ridden that globe down some of those slopes with the amount of water flowing. Thanks Stinga!

    I have to try and put a laugh in somehow. Everybody I talked to saw either bears or boars all along there. One fellow said he thought he was seeing monkeys when 4 cubs came down out of trees in the fog. He sat down and waited 45 min for them and momma to leave. Thanks for watching.

    The only problem with that map is it's hard to fold up. I thought about you but the only waterfall I saw was coming off the brim of my hat. I wasn't too proud of my site selection but the fellow with me wanted to stay in the shelter after the rain started so I stuck close. Thanks for watching Brucie!

    I like the Geezer Shelter. Good to see the piney woods being taken over by the More Mature Hikers.

    "More Mature Hikers"....Well put Shug! I was hoping to smell the white pines but the rain had 'em sedated. Thanks for watching.

    Good One! Thanks for sharing. Just thinking about getting all that wet gear into a tent makes my skin crawl. ;-)

    Free advice worth what you paid for it. ;-)
