Nothing to be disappointed about, hiking 1700+ miles in some rather adverse conditions, at times. You have done an amazing job, and we love reading your posts! Congrats on your accomplishment, even though you’re not quite done yet 🙂 )

Too bad that you won’t get to see the Smokies this year, but they have uncertain weather at the best of times. I imagine late fall could be treacherous.
