Weekly Trials and Tribulations of the Scenic City Chapter of the TTA

Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

River Walk

11.20.12 Nance Jo, Renee, Nancy, Gail, Adair and Earl.  What a perfect day for a hike, albeit a short one.   We walked from the Boat House Restaurant to a little past the Marsh and returned for five miles total.  Of course we saw lots of birds, but little other wildlife unless you count the walkers, joggers and bicyclists.  The temperature was cool but very comfortable.  For once we didn't half to watch every step we took and we had great conversation all along the walk.  Following the hike we stopped and had a very nice lunch at the Boat House.  The hike would be rated as easy.  For a couple uninteresting pictures click here or on the River Walk tab above.   

Signal Point to Edwards Point

11.14.12 & 11.17.12  On the first hike, it was John, Renee and George.  This was a special occasion hike as it was necessary to shown John the route to take.  It was his first hike to Edwards Point and it is easy to get confused around Rainbow Lake.  The hike went well and the weather was fine.  No Pictures. The second hike was on the 17th and consisted of John, Nance Jo, Linda and Nancy.  These hikes were considered strenuous as both times the hikes were conducted at a rapid pace.  Nance Jo, saw a large buck on her return.  Again the weather was excellent. Here are a couple of pictures.
