INVITATION- Backpacking trip - AT Approach trail

[2Glocks]

Hey fellas,

I am planning an overnight backpacking trip in mid - late February. Anyone who wants to tag along is more than welcome to.

• Trail: AT approach trail (Amicolola Falls to Springer MT)
• Total distance 16 miles (8 in, 8 out)
• Lots of elevation changes

I am planning on leaving early on a Saturday morning and returning Sunday early afternoon.

please send me a DM me or post in this thread if this is something you are interested in doing. This will take place rain or shine, cold or warm.

I have some spare gear to loan out if needed but please take into account this is a very difficult hike with lots of ups and downs
