Three hikers from the Soddy Daisy club completed the Sluder Lane hike of about 5 miles. The weather was pretty nice warming up, but still nice by the time we finished. The three hikers were George, Tom, and John. We ran into three other hikers who were hiking from the same trailhead but going to the Soddy Gulf ( probably about 9 + miles).
I would rate our hike as moderate. We had planned to go to Deep Creek (which would have added about a mile and one-half), but decided not too due to a drinking water shortage.
