Hey guys,
I'm comin from Chicago and headed toward Charlotte on the 21st of March. So technically I'm just passin through on US Rte. 40, but I been dreamin of settin foot on the A.T. for some time so I got my gear packed n im pumped! I only got 1 night before I gotta get to Charlotte...so this is my chance! I scouted a few locations...n for convenience I think I'm set on the Mt. Cammerer area. Plan on spending the night on Lower Mt. Cammerer Trail
BUT...theres a few concerns.
first, its been years since I did any rugged hiking r camping. Now I recently survived trekking a couple of miles during Chicago's blizzard of 2011, but I dont want to go through anything like that for a long time. Plus, I live in the cold...so I kinda want to stay away from it!
other than that...i was curious if I should use my 2person tent or my Hennessy Hammock..
So...In late march...is it worth the hassle of getting dropped off along the trail, and spending the $ to get to Charlotte?
