Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

John's Mountain 10.22.2024

Beautiful day, beautiful hikers!  Fourteen of us trekked up and around Johns Mountain in North Georgia.  No one turned back at the stone steps climbing u[ the side of the mountain, but there was a lot of huffing and puffing.  The snack at the top and the views made up for the effort.  Unfortunately, the hike on the northeast side of the mountain was quite the ascent too.  Finally, we arrived at the second observation deck and some of the hikers found out that they could have driven to this overlook!  Not a problem for these hardy hikers, as we picked our way through some boulders walking down the mountain.  Next stop, Keown Falls, which dripped into the nice rock house.  Another mile or so and we completed our double loop trail.  We hiked about 5.5 miles with 1000 foot elevation gain.
