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

Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

Turtletown Falls 12.18.18

This hike was both good and bad for me.  First the bad.  I forgot my GPS so I couldn't make a map of the hike and its location.  My bad!  The second thing is that my camera was not working correctly.  Somehow I had pressed a button and now I had focusing issues.  Hence the lack of a group picture.  Finally got it figured out and was lucky enough to not walk off a cliff while I was trying to keep up and fix the camera at the same time.  Now the good.  What a great winter hike!  I had never been there before so thanks to those who are finding these new hiking spots.  There were 17 of  us on this approximately 3.5 mile hike.  The duration was about 3 hrs and 20 minutes and I would rate it moderate.  The length of time being due to the time spent at the falls and our snack break.  The falls were double and really roaring as you can see from the water spots on the pictures.  I really hope to return to this hike this summer as the magnolias were everywhere.   Thanks to those that sent in pictures and these pictures can be seen here.
