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

Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

Sherwood Forest, 6.21.2022

 There were only 9 of us on this beautiful hike.  We easily found our way to Sherwood Forest, looking all the way for Friar Tuck, but alas, no friar.   All of us enjoyed this loop hike around and through the forest.  It was really a nice day for this hike.  We had feared that it might be too hot, but it was only 76 when we started the hike and it warmed up to 83 during the hike.  Of course we were in the shade the whole time and up in the mountains.  I think everyone enjoyed the Crow Creek Arch which you can see in the pictures.  Note that we later went to another arch, Sewanee Natural Bridge, near Sewanee, TN.  There you can see pictures of us from above the bridge and again with everyone standing on the bridge from a distance. The distance of the hike was three miles and it took us just about two hours.  After the hike we all tried to go to the Mountain Goat Café, but it was closed so we went to Papa Ron's and had a very nice lunch.
