  1. I got permission from my boys to post pictures of them. It was great to have them along for the first two days. My younger son's ankle is healing fine.

    The first sign is at the summit of #FowlerMountain. The second is #FlatTopMountain, which is the second highest point of the #BentonMacKayeTrail in Georgia, after #SpringerMountain.

  2. So my favorite mountain on this trip was #BigFrogMountain in Tennessee. It has tunnels of gnarly trees, a magical spring near the summit, beautiful views, and the northern approach trail (part of the #BentonMacKayeTrail) goes along a narrow ridge with steep drops on the left and right. I'll post a video of this in the thread.

    That first picture isn't crooked. My phone has a level sensor. That's the tunnels of trees on the side of the mountain.

  3. Yesterday I got home from #backpacking trip along the #BentonMacKayeTrail. The trip started with my and my two teenagers, but one of the boys twisted their ankle going down a mountain. I did a total of 54.8 miles of the #BMT, 13 of which with 2 of my boys.#

    I climbed over 11k feet, which is the height of Mt. Hood in Oregon. My favorite mountain was #BigFrogMountain in Tennessee. I'll post more about this in a thread.
