So far so good! We hiked the agonizingly steep approach trail to Springer Mountain yesterday and enjoyed a nice lunch on top, knowing full well the approach trail doesn't even count! We camped at Stover Creek shelter with some friends we met along the way, Marty & Genuine Draft. GD has her "trail name" from hiking a few years ago - we are still waiting for that moment where we get or choose our own. Today was a long day. We woke up later than pretty much everyone else and hiked with GD to Hawk Mountain shelter for lunch. After 11 and some change miles over mountains and through the woods we made camp at Justus Creek campsite... we are sooooo thrilled to be here! Still working on the plan for tomorrow!
OH, and our campsite neighbor is thru-hiking just like us. He's 80 years old and a total rock star!
