Flipper Bend

6-25-11  Nance Jo, Bob, Earl and John.  We decided to hike the Flipper Bend Trail to the Clear Branch Loop.  Along the way we did quite a bit of trail maintenance clearing downed trees, branches etc.  There were a few larger trees that we couldn't clear.  On this hike we managed to miss the rain completely.  We did see several small frogs that were out since the rain.  Also, we met a couple of hikers that had gotten lost at the beginning of the trail, easy to do, and we tried our best to describe the trail system of flipper bend to them.  All in all, a very good hike.  Distance 7.2 miles and rated easy.  For a few pictures, click here.
