Years ago, I did an overnighter on Springer Mountain and looked out over the monument that marks the start of the Appalachian Trail, spending the night not far from the shelter in my then brand-new Nomad tent. It was an experience not forgotten, and I plan to return to finish the AT in Georgia. And now, there’s an excellent online resource for planning that hike, thanks to an old friend, trail name “Pittsburgh,” who’s been on the AT-L mailing list for more than a decade. He’s run a measuring wheel down the trail and created a detailed mileage chart with info on water sources, privies, and types of camping available, plus plenty of asides with general info. Check out the Appalachian Trail Mileage Chart in Georgia, and bravo, Pittsburgh!
