Hi there....just a quick update.We started our hike on saturday,no problems until the trail became a sheet of ice,I (Trinket ) slipped on the ice and sprained my knee,so i caught a ride 47 miles north to a town called Hiawassee,I will rest my knee untill my brother catches up to me at the Bluberry Patch Hostel....I heard about the Magic that happens on the trail,its true the magic is for real,hikers are so friendly,they were giving me knee wraps,icey hot patches,cellphones,a lady from Suches Georgia came to pick me up at the trail and gave me a free ride into town....The Magic is real
If I dont stay off this leg,I dont see any chances of finishing a thru hike....until next time.....Happy Trails
also I wanted to thank everyone for the love and support...I keep telling myself its just a sprained knee...lol
