Guest post: Section hiking the AT – Georgia to North Carolina

[Editor’s note: Hey y’all!  For this week’s post we have a special guest contributor – Matt, who has often appeared here on the blog (e.g. all of the recent Utah posts, Mt. Washington winter climb posts, Smoky Mountains posts, etc etc).  A while back Matt did a solo section hike of the AT and has finally written up his adventure to share with us.  Enjoy!]

Hiking the Virginia Triple Crown

Just outside of Roanoke, VA there are three hikes dubbed the “Virginia Triple Crown”.  Why?  I don’t know.  But I hiked them and I’m going to give y’all an account of my experience!  (Why yes I have lived in Virginia for over a year and this is my first Virginia blog post…) 

New England 4000 Footers Superlatives

Hey y’all!  Back in November I finished up the 67 New England 4000 footers, which is all of the mountains over 4000 feet in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont.  And so, to reflect on my years of hiking in New England and all of the mountains on the list, I present you with my New England 67 Superlatives.
