Well, It's finally time to hit the
trail! Myself and a small group of FTA (Florida Trail Association) members
are going to be on the AT next week. We leave tomorrow and should be on
the trail from Tues. Oct. 12 to Thurs. Oct. 15. Our start is at the
Standing Indian Campground and we'll be heading up the Long Branch Trail to the
AT (North to South) and then back on the Kimsey Creek Trail.
Tues. Big Spring
Shelter
Wed. Carter Gap
Shelter
Thurs. Standing Indian
Shelter
It will be nice to get out of this hot
weather and into some 30-40 degree nights! Brrr, I can't wait! <big
grin>
Since I will not be here next week for
the "Word of the Week", I am handing this official power over to
Sandy Hubbard. I thought about making the word "COLD", because I
am waiting for it to get cold down here so we can all go backpacking again or
because I am getting tired of hiding in the Air Conditioning all the time.
Anyway, Sandy it's all yours! <big grin> Have fun
everyone.
Happy Trails,
Jeff Walters
