After 4 months of not doing much to keep in shape, I decided to join Firebird on a 3 day adventure on the AT.
This took us from Carvers Gap (Roan Mountain) southbound to Uncle Johnny's, roughly 36 miles in 3 days.
Firebird is in great shape & was a good sport as I huffed & puffed my way over the hills.
The video pretty ends a bit abruptly, as all I could think about was getting into an air conditioned car (it was 88* out) and getting some Gatorade.
But I'm glad we did it, and the pain has a way of fading as you look back on the trip.
At the end of the video, I do a quick review of the Guthook AT Guide app for your phone.
I was lazy & didn't want to look up the water sources, so I paid some $ and I was happy with how it worked. It even had updated trail routing compared to the ATC GPX data.
