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

Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

Raccoon Mtn. 2.28.17

There was a rather large group of ten hikers on this day.  The temperature was OK, but the group got thoroughly soaked on the way back to their cars.  Spring showers I guess.  The distance of this hike was about four miles.  I would rate this hike as moderate.  I you would like to see some pictures from this hike, click here.

Flipper's Bend 2.25.17

There were seven hikers on this loop hike at Flipper's Bend.  The four hikers from our club were joined by Debra and Mary from the Plateau Chapter and by Peter from the Nashville Area.  The locals really enjoyed their company on this hike.  The hike distance was about 9.5 miles and the weather was excellent.  The group had lunch on a beautiful overlook of the North Chickamauga Creek Gorge.  I would rate this hike as strenuous.  For a few pictures, click here
