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

Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

Prentice Cooper 9.14.19

Today we had five hikers join in for a fairly strenuous hiking adventure at Prentice Cooper.  We hiked the Mullens Cove Loop (a 9.8 mile hike).
We began our hike at the same location as last saturday's hike ( the Cumberland Trail Trailhead), and began our travel from the Tower Drive parking lot in the westerly direction around the loop.
On our hike we passed the Hemlock Branch Campsite; the Snoopers Rock Tennessee River Gorge overlook (which yielded panoramic views of the Tennessee River Gorge), and the rock structure called the Indian Rockhouse.  
The hike took about 5 and a half hours of hiking time plus a lunch on a ledge on an overlook at Mullens Cove (great views). Temperatures were moderate.
