Five souls braved the elements on Tuesday to hike the Bluff Trail on Lookout Mtn.  As we reached the top of the mountain we were engulfed in thick fog.  This did not bode well for experiencing the beautiful views from the west side of the mountain which is why winter is the best time to hike this trail.  As we turned off the main road and headed west toward the trailhead, like a miracle, the fog disappeared.  We had an unobstructed view the entire length of the trail and no rain.  We proceeded on our hike to Sunset Rock where we enjoyed a snack and nice conversation with a couple visiting from Texas.  I am only sorry that so many others missed out on a great day.
