Raccoon Mtn. River Gorge and Megawatt Trails

This hike consisted of E. Helmer, Nance Jo O., Bob Mc. Carol & Dave Sheppard and finally the hike leader George B.  The weather was absolutely perfect with the temperatures in the mid 70s and with only scattered high clouds.  Even though the trail was not well marked, George knew exactly where he was going and guided us perfectly.  We saw a dear close up near the beginning of the trail and the views of the river were beautiful.  A couple of offroad bicylists were on the trail but we managed to stay out of each others way.  I would rate the trail as easy with a short moderate hill at the end.  To see pictures click here or on the Raccoon tab above.
