backpack contains my lifeline: extra water bag, pump, spares, food, tools, patch kit and lock. not to mention keys, wallet, phone. the distance is too far to risk not taking it. are those trails paved?

Here is an example - it can be shortened by starting closer to Rockmart or only doing one of the loops.

Why do you carry a backpack?
