I've hiked the AL pinhoti in shorts in january, but just like you think it will get cold at night. I think most nights you will be at low 30s, but it certain can get into the 20s.

I've section hiked the entire trial. I created a video guide in the links below. I may be interested in hiking it again. What does it all entail?
I section hiked the entire BMT 2 years ago. This is my favorite trail. I love the BMT. Congrats and amazing trip report.
Shameless self-promotion. I created a video, virtual guide of the entire BMT based on my limited knowledge and skill. It shows all the major attractions, views, campsites, confusing intersections,...
I always used crocs for creek crossings that had me worried. I don't remember many worrisome crossings until the smokies though, but I may just not be remembering them.
I never minded carrying...
I created a video virtual hike for the entire Pinhoti along with other trails. I was a section hiker as well and completed the trail in 10 sections I believe. This may help you plan and figure out...
I section hiked the entire trail 2 years ago. Except for a few places, I didn't see more than 5-6 backpackers the entire trail.
If solitude is your goal, the BMT is the right choice for you. I...
I would hike it as an alternative to the AT (and all its craziness) in a heart beat if it were complete, well maintained and well marked.
I love the AT, but the crowds are just too much. I guess...

If you enjoy hiking, I'd say why not? If the goal is just to complete the AT and not to hike the AT, then perhaps it doesn't make sense.
It is the easiest access point to Springer...
At $100 the risk may be worth the reward. I trust Sintax's opinion on the matter. Of course, if he does take it out on a few hiked will he really be able to put a real review together on the pack. ...
I like the movie. If you dislike the movie because it "isn't real to hiking", perhaps you should look into documentaries. :)
I also like how hikers think they will starve to death if they go a...
Georgia has the Bartram Trail, the Benton MacKaye Trail and the Pinhoti Trail. I've section hiked all three. The Bartram Trail may be a good choice if you wish to "save" the AT for your thru attempt....
It is a big part of the culture from my experience on the trail, especially during thru-hiking season. I don't partake. If you wish to avoid "those" people, I would strongly suggest getting used to...
Yeah, there were a whole lot of mountain bikers. It is a multi-purpose trail as far as I know. I didn't mind too much. It just came with the trail.
The final section. It has been a hell of a journey.

I made a website that I haven't worked on in quite some time, but it does have pictures of the trail with a trail description. You might find it helpful.

I recommend them. I didn't have the pleasure to stay at their hostel, but I did use your their shuttle service for my section on the Pinhoti Trail. They were prompt, professional, knowledgeable, and...
I did a virtual hike of the entire trail showing the major views, campsites, intersections, etc. I tried to document the trail as best as I could. The most confusing sections involve the wilderness...

I hiked most of the smokies in December of last year. The weather was pretty amazing when I section hiked. The water crossing though will hurt. It was very cold. I still saw some bears out in the...
