Section Hiking

Greyhound and Rabbit have broken their southern portion of the trail by segwaying down to the Great Smoky Mountains at the North Carolina and Tennessee border. In Virginia they were struggling through 100+ degree weather and smoke from fires, so the cooler weather of the Smoky’s will definitely help ease their journey.

The Smoky’s are home to the highest elevations on the Appalachian Trail and are often snow capped. Going through now will be a much smarter way to tackle both portions of the trail. After tackling 100 miles of tough climbing there, they will head back to Virginia where they hope to find calmer and cooler hiking than there is now.

Along this part of the journey Greyhound and Rabbit are excited to get back in tandom with this hiking duo that have been such a great support system along the way.
