The Scenic City Hiking Club FINALLY Managed to get in this long overdue hiking journey to Sunset rock on Lookout Mtn. originally scheduled for January 31st, but derailed numerous times due to inclement weather. Fifteen brave souls endured a cool, but clear and sunny morning to get to and from “the rock” via the Beautiful Mountain Trail, Bluff Trail, and Craven’s House Trail. We enjoyed spectacular cliffs as we wound our way up and around the northern point of Lookout Mtn., but saved the best view of Lookout Valley from the Rock. Several of us rewarded ourselves by winding down at Amigo’s Mexican Cantina in St. Elmo following the hike of 4.3 miles. The hike took 3hrs 35 minutes.
