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

Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

Mushroom Rock

10.01.13  If I counted correctly, we had 18 hikers on todays hike.  Before we left, it was drizzly, but by the time we reached the hike start, it was sunny and perfect.  As you can see, there is an American Chestnut tree, which is highly endangered, right at the edge of the parking area.  The hike was short and went very well.  No fall downs or fall outs.  After this short hike we had lunch at a local BBQ place.  I would rate this hike as easy-moderate.  The length was 2.5 miles.  

North Chickamauga

North Chick Loop  Great day for a hike.  The weather was perfect as you can see from the pictures. The hike was early enough so that everyone finished before it got too hot.  Everyone had a good time and there was even time for a snack at one of the overlooks.  To see some pictures click on the North Chick tab above.
