A baker's dozen of hikers went up to Charlie's Bunion today...including four new Striders - Diane, Alicia, Rhonda and Devon. The Jumpoff was fogged in, but the skies cleared by the time we made it to the Bunion.
We have a good group gearing up for tomorrow's hike to Charlie's Bunion - Deb, Ellen, Mary Pom, Renee, Devon, Catherine & her mom, Theresa & her friend, Dre & Dee..
We'll carpool from my house at 9 a.m. and meet Theresa, Dre et al. at 10:45 at the trailhead at Newfound Gap.
We're going to drive through the park in order to avoid the car show traffic in Pigeon Forge...wish us luck!
Second Saturday hike - Charlie's Bunion - September 12th - meet at Trena's at 9 a.m.
October 2-4 Babes & Brutes multisport weekend - Big South Fork - mountain biking, hiking, and car camping. We have reserved two adjacent campsites so holler if you want a spot.
