Highlights
"AT Lash Day 6: Phyllis Spur to Amicolola Falls Visitor Center, with side trips to nearby peaks along the way. Took side trips out to Hawk Mountain, of which there’s nothing at the summit but a metal number, a few peaks just off the AT on the Benton MacKaye, and Long Creek Falls. The southern portion of the Georgia AT has quite scenic woods, and Amicolola Falls is a lovely park. " — wacbravo • Oct 14, 2024

"AT lash Day 5: Swaim Gap to Phyllis Spur with side trips to nearby peaks along the way. Took the Duncan Ridge Trail to the base of Slaughter Mountain, then bushwhacked to the summit via the northeast ridge. Spoiler alert: more brambles. This one hurt, a lot. I foolishly thought Slaughter would have some sort of a social trail, but all I found were interment game paths through dense brush. There’s lots of evidence of hogs at the summit, but nothing else. Made camp at the col of Phyllis Spur, and was treated to a night full of explosions and heavy gunfire from the nearby military base." — wacbravo • Oct 13, 2024
