This book is a guide to day hiking the entire Georgia portion of the Appalachian Trail. In it you'll find:
  • Maps of the entire AT in Georgia divided into 16 different day hikes & links to online maps
  • Data and charts about each section to help you pick the right section
  • Links to digital maps and other content
  • Directions on how to get to the trailhead for each section
  • Tips that will help you prepare for your hikes
  • A personal journal of my experience hiking each section
  • BONUS: A dash of my dry, snarky humor sprinkled throughout (No, I don't take myself too seriously.)

This book is for those, who like me, love the outdoors. For those who love hiking, but can't block out large swaths of time to experience some of the best hiking in the Southeast. For those who are intrigued by the idea of hiking the AT, but are intimidated by walking 2100+ miles. For those who want to experience more of what the southern Appalachians have to offer.

This book is for those who are looking for more solitude, but finding it less.

As a kid, I remember family trips "to the mountains" where my mom would point out "Hey! There's where the Appalachian Trail crosses the road!" My response: "Walking from Georgia to Maine?!? Who's that crazy?" Ironically now, its remoteness and challenge play no small part in its allure to me. Especially those parts that are hard to access; those roads less travelled.

But I have a family, and a job, and I can't put all that on hold for the better part of a year to hike the entirety of this amazing national treasure. So, I decided to bite off a chunk that I did think I could do and well... do it:

Hike the AT in Georgia, one day at a time (both ways: -).

However, I found exactly zero pre-existing collections for how to day hike the entirety of the AT in Georgia. So, I had to find and review multiple maps (digital and printed) to find access points that were close enough together to allow for a series of one-day jaunts to completion.

And so, here it is. Two years in the making, the culmination of my many, many, many hours of research and hiking and documentation. Ultimately, it came down to the hope that this effort would enable some few people to experience the wild east that Georgia offers in a new way that increases their appreciation of creation and this protected national treasure. There's not a single time I walk on the AT that I don't see something that I've never seen before. I hope this book makes that a reality for you, too. And I hope that appreciating the beauty of creation helps you better understand the importance of being a good steward of our planet.
