Iconic hike - Humpback Rock Loop through AT

Details

The hike is 4.2 miles and is considered moderately challenging. We will start hiking at 9:30. We are starting early because it gets pretty crowded. Make sure you search Humpback Gap Overlook in Google maps before you go as the cell service is not good there. Bring water, snacks, and good hiking boots.
Optional beverage/lunch at Blue Mountain or somewhere around based on preferences.
Note: There's additional parking at Humpback Rocks Visitors Center and Picnic Area which is just before the Overlook Parking. From there it's a short walk to where we'll be meeting which is Humpback Gap Overlook parking.
