Cold weather gear

The trail is a real bear in the mountains, but you are right in that once you get to the piedmont or eastern part of the state it can get boring. But you can also make time and haul A if you need to. Some sections you can easily do in a weekend. The Durham County section follows the Eno River, mostly in Eno River State Park, and is doable in a long day.

Haven't watched this one yet(just started watching this guy in 2021), but usually points out a lot of neat things to see on trails.

Thanks for sharing that. I watched about 15 minutes, will watch more later.

I have done the NC portion of the Appalachian Trail, which is nice, but I am looking forward to the MST.
