Does anyone know a resource that can accurately say which section of the AT has the most up and down? I was thinking if you cut the AT into 15 mile chunks, which chunk would have the most elevation change? Thanks

Yes, the FarOut app for the AT. You can create routes with specific start and end points and it will tell you the elevation gain and loss for that section. I suspect that 15-mile section would be somewhere in the Whites in New Hampshire or Mahoosic Range in southern Maine.
I agree with CB, Somewhere in the whites/ Southern Maine.
