so great! I'm hoping to be at the visitors center by noon.
Yeah!!! I'm the ridgerunner working at the visitors center helping thru-hikers. I'll be here until around noon on Monday helping you get registered, weigh your pack, and can give you a pack shakedown if you want it. I finished my thru-hike on Dec 7, 2015. Can't wait to see you! Shorten your time here by registering on the ATC's website before you come:

thanks! i hope to
I just got into Georgia. Stopped into Neel Gap on the way to the hotel room and saw a few hikers. So far has been a great time. Did have one jerk tell me I was too fat to be a thru-hiker. Guess you will find jerks in all walks of life.
Jerks are a dime a dozen. Get out there and hike, but do not overdo it. I am on the fat side and I will never forget the look on afew hikers faces when my grandson and I met them just north of Plumorchard Shelter on our way to Dicks Creek. They were huffing and puffing and my grandson and I looked fresh and were having n oproblem. Did not tell them we just tooka fifteen-minute break. Enjoy your hike and when it starts to hurt slow down.Remember it is not a foot race.
