Join us for a hike on probably the most famous trail in the USA. This hike is part of Section 3 of the Appalachian Trail.
Please note that this is a fairly difficult Appalachian Trail hike as it involves a climb over Blood Mountain. Blood Mtn is the 4th highest mountain
in Georgia. We will shuttle cars leaving some at Neels Gap and some at Miller Gap.
There is quite a bit of elevation change in this hike. The highest continuous climb is about 1600 feet which is about the 2.5 times the height of
Stone Mountain. I’m not sure whether we’ll do the hike starting at Miller Gap or starting at Neels Gap. It depends on whether people would
prefer a steep uphill climb and more gentle downhill or a more gentle uphill and steep downhill.
