Tough little hike from Cool Springs Overlook down and around the east side of the summit of Fort Mountain
Out & back hike up and down the Curry Mountain trail in Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Hiked the Jakes Creek trail from Elkmont to Jakes Gap with a stop by the Avent Cabin in Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Nice almost 10-mile out & back hike from Tallulah Gorge visitor center to Lake Tugalo at the end of the gorge.
Hike out the A.T. from Hogpen Gap to Wide Gap, then bushwhacked down the old Chattahoochee Trail as seen on USGS topo maps down to the creek and back.
Really nice hike up this prominent mountain in northern Georgia while the weather was sleeting.
Beautiful short hike up to this grassy bald from the Cherohala Skyway
A really nice loop hike from Unicoi Gap on the Appalachian Trail to the Rocky Mountain trail down to Indian Grave Gap, then back up the A.T. to the summit of Rocky Mountain and back down to Unicoi Gap.
Lake Trail at Don Carter State Park with side trips to the swings and the dock
From cabin boat-ramp trailhead to day-use beach area trailhead
This scrambling climb up Maine's highest mountain takes you up the Abol slide "trail" to the Tableland where it meets the Hunt trail (which is also the AT) at Thoreau Spring. Then the last mile follows the infamous Appalachian Trail to its northern terminus atop Baxter Peak on Mount Katahdin. The return trip goes down the AT/Hunt trail where a shuttle or road walk is needed to get back to your car...
Took AT approach trail from top of Amicalola Falls out to FS46 (High Shoals Church Rd) then walked the gravel road back to the 2nd trail crossing. Picked up the trail and returned to parking lot.
Gorgeous climb up Frozen Head Mountain via the South Old Mac Trail, Lookout Tower trail, then down the North Old Mac trail. More wildflowers than I've ever seen.
Very steep climb out of the gap up to the summit ridgeline of Wildcat Mountain where the rock outcrops with views begin to appear.
Surreal hike through a tornado damage swath then deep into a cool forest by Cowrock Creek.
