I am little confused, is approach trail officially part of AT, how long is it? Where does it start compared to where AT starts? What kind of hike is the approach trail, I am figuring straight up as with most starting points?
Where is best play to stay if you want to do it? Where if you want to skip it? Where do you come in at if skipping it?
Driving down night before for early morning start, suggestions for hotel or cabin to rent?
Thanks for any and all answers
