My trip along the Appalachian Trail

This is a diary of sorts from the past that chronicles my journey across the Appalachian Trail in 1989. The Appalachian Trail is a continuous hiking path that extends from Georgia to Maine, and is over 2100 miles of some extraordinary hiking that traverses 14 states. This trip was the fullfillment of a lifelong dream. I hope not only to relive this dream in the pages of this blog, but I hope to take you along as well. So put on your hiking boots and enjoy the trip!

Day 5

Saturday, April 8, 1989
The skies opened up again today and spit down snow all day. Unfortunately we went over Blood Mountain today; the highest point on the AT in Georgia and some of the best views in Georgia as well. Visibility was only about 50 feet. We were robbed! By the time we got to Neal's Gap, we were soaked all the way through. We went into Blue Ridge and stayed at ET's mom's house. (Shower, shave, s__t, laundry, dry up, Chinese dinner.) It was a welcome feeling.
