When we arrived at Cloudland Canyon, there was a little mix-up of the meeting place, but we quickly straightened this out. This was another joint hike with the Highland Rim Chapter. When we all finally got together, there were 19 total hikers. We set out around the canyon to the West Rim which was a nice hike to the Lollipop Trail. This trail is kind of shaped like a lollipop with a loop followed by an out and back section. The total distance was just short of 6 miles with lots of ups and downs, roots and rocks. The weather was absolutely beautiful and the overlooks were spectacular. Joan led the hike and as usual kept us all together which can be a daunting task. Everyone survived and had a very good time.
