Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

Roaring Creek and Rock Creek

3.29.2011  Fellow hikers from the Knoxville area joined us for a total of 19 hikers!  It could not have been a more beautiful day.  Clear blue sky and temperatures in the high 50's.  Hike leader Bob took us to Roaring Creek where we met the Knoxville Group.  We hiked in about 1.5 miles to a point where we couldn't get across a side creek.  However there was a very nice waterfall right at our crossing point. 
After returning to the vehicles we decided that we would go to Rock Creek and hike down to the creek.  This was a delightful hike and there were many comments on how beautiful it was.  Rock Creek was flowing with a lot of force and very beautiful.  I would rate the short portion of Roaring Creek that we did as easy and the Rock Creek segment as moderate.  For a few pictures, click on the Roaring Creek tab above.
