Weekly Trials and Tribulations of the Scenic City Chapter of the TTA
Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking
Flipper's Bend 2.25.17
There were seven hikers on this loop hike at Flipper's Bend. The four hikers from our club were joined by Debra and Mary from the Plateau Chapter and by Peter from the Nashville Area. The locals really enjoyed their company on this hike. The hike distance was about 9.5 miles and the weather was excellent. The group had lunch on a beautiful overlook of the North Chickamauga Creek Gorge. I would rate this hike as strenuous. For a few pictures, click here.
Roaring Creek
We had a great turnout on this hike despite the possibility of rain. Luckily, there was no rain on this hike. The distance was only about three miles but it was still rated as moderate. I think the group had a great time on this hike. For a bunch of pictures, click here.
Roaring Creek 2.11.17
There were only two Soddy Daisy Chapter hikers on this hike at Roaring Creek. About a third of the way through the hike they met up with five members of the Plateau Chapter. They hiked past Gilbreath Creek and ate lunch with the Plateau Chapter at the halfway point. Everyone enjoyed hiking with the Plateau members. The distance of this hike was ten miles and I would rate the hike as strenuous. The group was lucky as the there was no rain and the temperature was moderate.

Enterprise South 2.7.17
There were nine hikers on this relatively easy hike. The distance was approximately six miles. Everyone enjoyed the hike even though it was heavily overcast. The group just finished the hike before the rains came. If you would like to see a bunch of pictures, click here.
North Chickamauga Creek
There were only three hikers on this overcast somewhat cool hike. The hikers went only as far as where the steps used to be and then turned back. This made a hike of about five miles. I would rate this hike as strenuous. This trail is in particularly bad shape and will have to be worked on this coming spring. If you would like to see a couple of pictures, click here.
