My hiking adventures
12/27/20 Sherri and I This is our 3rd trip to this park. It may be the greatest little secret. Each time we have barely seen a soul. This trip was no exception. Not one person. There were a couple cars in the lot but that's it. We are taking the Cedar Ridge Trail to Brenigar... Continue Reading →
11/14/20 Sherri and I Doughton Park is near Stone Mountain NC and goes to the Blue Ridge parkway and is maintained by the BRP. It has a great trail system but is not very popular. I'm not sure why but yay for us! We started on the trailhead near the back entrance to Stone Mountain... Continue Reading →
Sherri and I 9/25/20 This is year 3 attending the Stokes County Arts event. This time it was back to all 5 peaks and 10.5 miles. Because of Covid they split it up in 3 days.

2/29/20 Sherri, Brandi, Cathy, Andi, Kristin and me Hiking is awesome. I love it and I crave it. I have what my kids call FOMO or fear of missing out. I'm envious when I miss a hike or if I see someone do a great hike I have to go. I did the hike to... Continue Reading →
January 19, 2020 Sherri and I When we first started training for the make a wish 28.3 mile challenge we met a man who told us about hospital rock. He said it was a very tough trail. After all these years we decided to try it. I left from Clemson so we could have 2... Continue Reading →
12/28/19 Brandi, Christi, Andi, Jon and I This is a very fun and beautiful trail. It's actually not a trail anymore. It's a scrambler trail so you need a scrambler map to follow it or someone who's been there before. We met at the info cabin and then followed each other to Connolly Cove trailhead....
