[at-l] AT Hiking Agenda starting this Sunday - Dicks Creek to Woody Gap

[orangebug74@yahoo.com (Orange Bug)]

You will have a bunch of climbs, especially day 1 and between Tray Mtn
to Blue Mtn shelters. I'd avoid Whitley Gap Shelter and simply bale at
Low Gap Shelter and push the next day to Neel's Gap and up to Blood
Mtn. Water should be reasonable at HogPen Gap, but may be pretty dry
from there until Neel's.

Assuming you have tents/tarps, consider passing by Tray Mtn. Shelter
and camp down in the Cheese Factory area. There are many nice camping
spots between Deep Gap and Trey, for instance Addis Gap and along the
Blue Ridge Swag - many have blue blazed trails to water although not in
the Databook. South of Blue Mtn Shelter are good sites including the
headwaters of the Chattahootchee. Blue Mtn Shelter's water is pretty
limited.

But whatever you do, have fun and send us a leaf/trip report!
