 I don't have any description of this hike, but from the smiling faces it appeared to be a very nice walk in the woods.

Greenway Farms 5.13.2025

 Our hike at Greenway Farms started out nice and clear.  Unfortunately, a short but thorough shower drenched us all on the way back.  Gotta love the trails.

Clemmer Trail 5.10.2025

 Saturday the Mountain Laurel was in full bloom! Six hikers ventured up the Clemmer trail in the National Cherokee Forest to Benton Falls, a great spot to have lunch and admire the falls. The return trail was the same but all downhill! The hike was 9.2 miles, elevation gain of 1300 feet with an average pace of 26.43. Good job hikers and just a very light sprinkle of rain.

Benton MacKaye Trail 5.6.2025

 Well, it wasn’t quite the hike we thought it would be, but it was a good one.  We were thwarted in our goal of doing a point-to-point hike because of a tree in the road to the trailhead.  So we altered plans and did an in-and-out which, of course, meant we hiked the toughest part twice instead of once. 

And water! It was great to see the various methods people used to cross the creek with or without water shoes. 

But the weather was fantastic and the company excellent!

I’m reading a horror book in Braille.  Something bad is going to happen, I can feel it.
