[at-l] Hunting and Hiking...

[Charles Copeland" <charles@uswnet.com (Charles Copeland)]

A few comments:

1)  The Scout leaders were thinking they could hike without getting shot
at - especially on the AT!   The location they were in was between Amicalola
and Vogel - neither park is big enough to do any extensive hiking.

2)  There's no restriction on hiking in or out of state.  A Tour Permit is
all that is required to make a Scout trip "official".

3)  I just saw on "Georgia Outdoors" that because of "nuisiance bears",
Gatlinburg is now requiring business owners to use bearproof dumpsters.

There are several Georgia State Parks in Northern Georgia, Amicalola, Vogel
and Black Rock for example. I don't think they have extensive hiking trails
tho. Vogel has some trails. GSMNP is probably the best choice but it may be
too far to travel and I'm not sure if the scouts have out of state travel
restrictions.
