Each crew member should bring money for fast food breakfast on
Saturday and Sunday lunch. We will eat a trail lunch, dinner on
Saturday and a trail breakfast on Sunday. Crew 1 will be able to visit
the Neel's Gap store on Sunday.
Pack warm clothes since temperatures can be 10-15 degrees
cooler than Athens.
Crews will swap vehicles at breakfast Saturday morning so that each crew is hiking toward their own vehicles on Sunday. All gear is to be placed into vehicles of the opposite crew Saturday morning. Keys will be passed back to their owners when we pass on trail (Drivers should keep a spare key in their own pack, just in case).
