The Appalachia Trail

This past weekend we went hiking with our friends Michelle & Kelly. They have always wanted to hike the Appalachia Trail (in sections) and they decided to start this past weekend with us! We started at the beginning on Springer Mountain and ended at Hightower Gap. It was a 9 mile hike and it took us about five hours. We had a great time and it was very beautiful! I have to say that parts of the hike kicked my but...we still had a great time though! I will definitely need to prepare more for the 2nd part of the trek.... it is 11 miles.
