There's that silly joke "If you don't like the weather... wait 10 minutes" I think the same can be said about a thru-hike.

Every bit of advice I got leading up to this hike boiled down to 4 things...

It's 76.2 miles from Oconee State Park to Table Rock State Park. That's like 3 marathons back to back! It's not easy, but it's worth it.

It's never fun when a journey comes to an end... but if it never ended, there couldn't be new adventures.

Not going to lie this was by far my favorite day on the trail! So many exciting events packed into just one day on the trail.

Only a really crazy person would try to tackle Heartbreak Ridge, Laurel Valley, and the climb up Sassafras in one day… I guess I'm crazy.

There are bound to be some bad days on the trail. But it's like they say "Don't quit on a bad day"

The day took a strange turn when a friend on the trail shared about a hard to believe encounter from the year before.

Today was my first full day on the trail, and I couldn't wait to get moving! I also couldn't wait to see the beautiful Chattooga River again

From the moment I first heard about the Foothills Trail, I wanted to hike it all the way through...

Little did either of us know Black Balsam Knob would be the setting of our first misadventure together and a ridiculous story to tell later.
