HAPPY NEW YEAR As is the chapter's custom, we did a New Years day hike. This time the hikes leader was Nancy. She did a wonderful job of keeping us all together and even stopped on the difficult portions for everyone to rest. There were 14 of us on this 4.2 mile hike and everyone agreed it was a great hike. The hike lasted just about three hours and I would rate it as easy-moderate. It was a very overcast day, but no rain. The trail was very wet, covered with leaves and somewhat slippery. The falls were magnificent with lots of water from all of the rain we have been having. The average speed was 2.3 mph. On top of the bluff we all had a nice break and snack. I think all of us returned and we didn't get lost once. If you would like to see some pictures, click here. Thanks to those who sent in additional pictures. There is also a map of our trek and and altitude graph.
