Chattahoochee National Forest

Cindy and Gerry celebrated their 32nd anniversary by exploring parts of the Chattahoochee National Forest near Helen, Ga, Dec 19-21, 2002. Stayed at the Hampton Inn in Helen. Drove FRs 698, 79, 52, 44, and 283 (even though the last was officially closed.). Hiked the short stretch of Appalachian Trail from Tray Gap to the top of Tray Mountain. Mostly cloudy on 12/19. Rained the night of 12/19, wonderfully (but not excessively) charging the creeks and waterfalls. Mostly sunny and beautiful 12/20 and 12/21. Lows around freezing.
