Eve of our start!

It was a long day but we got from the hotel in Cummings to our cabin at Amicalola Falls State Park. 

Ourshuttle driver Richard picked us up at the car rental drop off and drove us to the Amicalola Falls Lodge, unfortunately we were early so we had to wait for our cabin to be ready.  
Jen was inside getting us snacks to hold us over through lunch.

We then had to hike down the access road about a mile and seemingly a thousand feet of elevation to our cabin.
This is the view up to the lodge from near our cabin.

Cabin is awesome, all amenities of home.
Allagash enjoying the comforts of this temporary home.
Tomorrow we hit the trail!

Was a pretty standard day for me hiking, it was more about seeing how my back felt hiking without weight on it.  Jen did get to see the dog Huckleberry and his human HH which was exciting for her. We both saw the memorial for the 4 year old boy who died on a mountain back in 1891, memorial is here. You can hear about this story in an episode of The Green Tunnel podcast. ...
