Appalachian Trail - First Hike















First time on the Appalachian Trail! What an incredible Hike! Starting at Springer Mountain ... across Beauty Spot (running through the grass and singing 'Sound of Music' songs) ... then four miles up Big Bald Mountain (Elevation 5,516 feet) - one mile above the tree line. Back down to Wolf Laurel ... the Nolichucky River ... and off at the Nanthala River. Five days ... four nights ... on the AT. First words off the Trail: "I made it!"
