Not much of the last eight days was particularly scenic, but I am picking up speed and I did get a few good pictures.

I shot this video in something of a Ridley style my first day out on the Trail.
Here are some selected pictures from my first few days on the Appalachian Trail.
As you probably know by now I decided to skip the approach trail and head directly from Springer Mountain. In the last three days I’ve made 20 miles, as far as Woody Gap, and gotten off the trail for a while to wait out some expected bad weather.
Later this morning I’ll be off up the approach trail, eight rather strenuous miles until I get to the top of Springer Mountain, the official start of the Appalachian Trail.
I’m really leaving tomorrow, for real this time.
I forgot something at REI and I have to go to the post office, so I’m sticking around for another day.
I arrived earlier this evening in Atlanta, paid too much for a taxi, and have been to WAFFLE HOUSE.
I know I’m in the right crowd when almost no one, when they heard the news I share in this post, asked me why. Most everyone already understood.
