Senior planning on hiking from Dick's Creek Gap (North Georgia) to Fontana Dam (NC) this summer (2019) for 1 full week - Saturday to Sunday. Have not determined the exact week to start yet, I have some flexibility. Average 10-12 miles per day, could be more depending on terrain. Not in a hurry, I must enjoy the views, I don't run by them. I have been doing the AT in sections for a number of years, and constantly conditioning, year round. If you are interested in joining me, let me know.
