This trail lived up to it's reputation. We do the second half next week. It's definitely the toughest long section of trail in Ga I've experienced. I've been on shorter steeper grades, but the ascents and descents are never ending. The trail is well groomed, smooth and does not have a bunch or rocks to walk on and climb on. The climbs to the peaks and descents are steep. We saw no flat spots, unless you count the transitions in the gaps. Views will be best late fall to early spring. The ridges are heavily forested and scenic views are sporadic.
