In June, my daughter and i thru hiked the bartram trail nobo. If you want solitude, this is for you. Its a tough trail...more like a path. Lots of elevation gain and loss. Some very overgrown parts, but despite all of that, we found that every step was worth it. Amazing scenery, wildlife and flowers. Bears, though present, are shy due to the very low human contact. Water was tricky to find in NC. So we each carried 2 liters. We skipped the road walk, and i highly recommend sherpa al for shuttle service. We hiked it in 7 days. The only resupply is in Franklin,NC. So be prepared to be self sufficient for 10 days. Ithink next time ill do some of my favorite sections of it to savor what the trail provides.
