My niece has spent the last week hiking Dahlonega, the southern gateway to Chattahoochee National Forest in Georgia. It embraces Amicalola Falls State Park and includes Anna Ruby Falls and Trackrock Gap. Springer Mountain which is the southern terminus of the Appalachian National scenic trail, and onto Blairsville GA to the Blue Ridge.
On each precipice Shana would take gorgeous photos to share with family. I so wish that I could have journeyed with her, but there will always be the next trip!

OK………..Those are awesome pics. Look at that scenery. Just give me some trail mix with the M & M’s and water and count me in. Nice photos.

Hopefully, you can plan a trip east to hike a small portion of the Appalachia. I live in Virginia and love heading to the Blue Ridge Mountains on days off.,

My niece is a traveling companion, and the consummate hiker in the family. She has explored most of the trails in Maryland.
