I would like to section hike from the south terminus (springer mt.) to Clingmans Dome in the smokies. I plan to do super low budget as possible late this spring. Still working out the logistics from Memphis to the s. trailhead and from the smokies back. Does anyone have input on this section, or is there a better stopping point to get transport at the end.
I would love to hike the entire AT but can't possibly consider taking more than a couple of week off for such a trek. Even this would be grand fun to put on my life list of accomplishments. BTW I'm thinking of taking a bus. That should be an adventure in itself!
