Date of hike: 6/6/10
Road conditions: about as awful as it always is, maybe a little more washed out in a couple places, but I'm sure everyone really wants to know about the bridges. They're also about the same as they were two years ago when I was last there. We had a truck and could have made it all the way to the Redington parking area 5.4 miles in, but parked .3 miles before the AT crossing instead. We saw a Honda Accord and an SUV at the parking area also, nothing further up.
Trail conditions: Most of this is old logging roads of course, they were fine to walk on, the actual trail was rather nice, well marked and easy to follow, with no blowdowns worth mentioning (none that were more than a 1.5' step-over). It's actually in better condition than the parts of the AT I've hiked this year.
Weather: awful, rain, rain, rain. We knew this going in though. Up-side? We didn't see a single insect all day.
