We start the Approach Trail Tomorrow!

Team TNT+C (Charlie),

After a year of planning and dreaming, tomorrow (Feb. 28th) morning we will out on the unofficial beginning of the Appalachian Trail!!! I am so excited I am having a hard time eating and sleeping! I have never felt this way before. Uncharted territory here...

Thanks to our shuttle driver Wes Wissom who drove us from Gaingsville, GA to the base of Springer Mountain. Great guy! Highly recommend him!

We are staying in Cabin #2 at Forrest Hills Resort (Just down the road from the Approach Trail). What a fantastic place! We have our own cabin with a Great Room, bedroom with Hot Tub and a sweet back porch with a swing and view! Could not recommend it more highly!

Tomorrow, our first Trail Magic will happen. Can you believe it, we haven't even started hiking and a Trail Angel contacted us on Twitter to offer us a ride in the morning from the resort to Amacalola Falls State Park to begin our adventure!

Tomorrow we finally start hiking!
