Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

Roaring Creek to McGill Creek 10.25.16

I don't have particulars on this hike except it should have been a great day as the weather has been excellent.  As you can see, we are in a drought and there is not much water in the creeks.  The hike was about 5 miles and I would rate it as moderate to severe.  If you would like to see some really good pictures, click here or on the Roaring Creek tab above.
Not too much to say about this hike as there were only three hikers.  The hikers were John, Boodie and George.  The hike went about eight miles and the weather was gorgeous.  I would rate this hike as moderate.  If you would like to see a couple of pictures of the hikers, click here or on the Flipper Bend tab above.

Signal Mtn. H.S.

Very nice day for a hike.  There were six hikers on this approximately four mile hike.  I would rate it as moderate.  After the hike four of the hikers went to The Meeting Place in Red Bank for lunch.  The lunch was rated as very good.  If you would like to see some pictures, click here or on the Signal Mtn. H.S. tab above.

Piney River 10.15.16

I did not receive any details about this hike.  It was scheduled to be about 6 miles and rated as moderate.  The weather was perfect so I believe that everyone should have had a great hike.  If you would like to see some pictures, click here or on the Piney River tab above.

Stringer's Ridge 10.11.16

It was an absolutely beautiful day for a hike.  For a change, it was not to hot.  There were eight hikers on this hike which I would rate as easy.  The distance was 4.8 miles.  It was unusual that there were no bicycles seen on this hike, on five trail runners.  If you would like to see some pictures of the hike, click here or on the Stringer's Ridge tab above.
