It is GA to ME or ME to GA. I have hiked both GA to ME and ME to GA.
The trail is the same both ways, it goes up the hills, down the hills and 
around the hills; over briges, on rocks, thru creeks and in a canoe; thru 
towns, around towns and thru a zoo; thru fields of grass, wildflowers or 
cows; some times you hike south to go north or north to go south; you hike in 
the sun, shade, rain, or snow and maybe thru a hurricane; you sleep in 
shelters, tents, hostels, motels and under the stars; you may see deer, 
skunks, snakes, bears, porcupines, beavers, or moose; water may be easy or 
hard to find; the bottom line is: Enjoy what ever way you go, however long 
you can hike.

Wildbill, GA to ME 1989 and GA to ME to GA 1992-3
