Excuse this interloper - I am not either a thru hiker or a sectional hiker (although I have hiked sections of the AT in Georgia, NC and Virginia). However, I hike 3 times a week at Amicalola Falls, which of course is the beginning of the access trail to Springer Mountain. Anyway, it has been my pleasure many times to meet hikers either at the beginning or the end of their hike. I'm retired and live about an hour from Atlanta airport. Can I volunteer to give rides from the airport to Amicalola, or is there an insurance issue? I do have the time, and would love to help out. Let me have comments. Thanks.
