Image of the view behind Vandeventer Shelter of Watauga Lake, outside of Hampton Tennessee. Posting this image as a follow up to my last post to further the description of this area (which is among my favorites) My guess is there are many thru hikers soaking up this section of trail as we speak heading north. Please continue to follow as I share my journey re capturing the entire Appalachian Trail for @amber.a.niven and I’s 4 book Hike series with @falcon.guides . Follow us @goodmorningappalachia . Prints available of my work, DM for information.
Image of Watauga Lake from an un-marked site near Vandeventer Shelter. Outside of Hampton Tennessee. This section of trail is potentially my favorite section of the AT. The amount of water and fun to be had is unrivaled. Now that the season has started and thru hikers are headed north I’m getting excited for all the photography ahead of me in Virginia this year, and am most of all thankful for all the hard work our trail clubs have put in post Helene, thank you to those who have put in the time and made this thru hiking season possible.
