Looking for Fluff

Bottom Creek Gorge Preserve Trails. About 6 miles.
This shot was supposed to show McAfee Knob in the background; instead it shows a mildly simpering hiker with hazy McAfee silhouette back there.

A New Loop, in Hunting Season

In Carvins Cove Natural Area from Bennett Springs parking area: Hi Dee Ho Trail to Brushy Mountain Trail to Four Gorge Trail to Hi Dee Ho Trail loop. About 7.5 miles.

Short But Sweet: Dragon’s Tooth, Cove Mountain and a View of the Valleys
