Trip to Springer Mountain

A group of Sipsey Wilderness Hiking Club members made a trip to Springer Mountain in Georgia. Springer is the southern terminus of the Appalachian Trail. Foster Parsons was the leader of this expedition. Bomber and Nina Brown came from Russellville, and Bart Seymour and I came from Double Springs. Foster had planned three days of hiking, but the weather did not cooperate at all. So, we had a short hike and an exciting adventure in the mountains. Our campsite was my kind of place-private, free-of-charge, and not overused. I definitely would like to return on my own later this year. Here's a quick video from the trip:
