🌜Blood Mountain Shelter

Hiked 13.2 miles today in beautiful 55°F weather to arrive at Blood Mountain Shelter- at the top of the tallest peak Georgia has to offer on the Appalachian Trail. The final approach was more than an hour of steep uphill hiking but my timing could not have been more perfect. I set up my sleeping bag, etc and it was time to watch the sunset. The shelter on this site is made of stone and it’s over 100 years old. People generally don’t like to stay here because it’s cold and windy but I’m super cozy in my best winter outfit 🤩 Reviews of this location included tips not to stay here in the summer due to bat activity 🦇 😱. Well, I’m here solo tonight and looking forward to catching up on sleep and no snoring… and maybe getting up early for the sunrise before heading down.
