In this. Been day hiking in foothills of sc. Going to go on a few weekend type hikes this summer, probably foothills trail and Appalachian trail.

 

Was hiking in the Catskills last weekend, found this just off the trail





Kaaterskill Falls

 

Big hiker. Here's a few from some recent trips in 2016.

 

There's an off season??

 

Nice! Former Alabamian here! And I've been a hammocker for nearly 10 years! Used to hike Cheaha and Bankhead quite a bit. I've thru hiked the Pinhoti twice too!

 

Day hike to May Lake HSC today.

 

You must have if you could spot the pinhoti on spot like that! I've completed the entire trail in both states about 80% in sections. I won't ever be able to thru hike it because of work but before I transfer next year I will knock out the sections I have left!

 

As long as you're out there enjoying it, who cares how you do it! It's a beautiful trail! I've got a photo I need to dig out when Sweetwater Lk flooded. Water level was AT the blue blazes!

 

I have loved hiking it in sections, it's taken me 3 years but I feel like I'm connected to that trail more because of just how much time I've spent doing it. Plus really I will have hiked the entire thing twice because I almost always hiking alone and all the sections have been in an out hikes.

 

The Pinhoti will always have a special place in my heart. The southern section at Flagg Mtn... I helped build/hand dig that section.
And I think Lower Shoal Shelter has to be one of the best camp spots!
