It has been 289 zero mile days since I emerged from the Great Smokey Mountain National Park at Davenport Gap on October 10 of last year. That’s waaaay too long with no trail progress! But as an excuse, in February, I started a new job that has taken up much of my weekend free time. The job is good, but its also a real commitment. However, my loving and understanding wife and family have lengthened my leash several hundred miles to allow me a weekend trip to North Carolina for another hike. This time out, I plan to hike the 35 miles from Davenport Gap to Hot Springs, NC.
