    This is where the 2,000+ journey begins. Georgia to Maine baby!!!

    After many years of wishing and hoping to see at least one of the trailheads, I got to check out the Southern Terminus. There is a really nice shelter just a few miles past the terminus.

    My friends and I were hit with bad weather, and the first five miles of the trail were deceivingly easy. That's why it only gets 4 stars because it gives the thru-hikers a false sense of what is to come. I have done other parts of the trail and have wanted to just die from the difficulty.

    My dog loved it. Great day trip, or longer!

Map location is approximate. Help us map it!
