My hiking adventures
April 8, 2018 Sherri and I I have never heard of Graybeard Trail or the 3 Sisters range that is with it. Sherri picked this one because it had views and a waterfall. We decided to leave at 8 am to head on up. She picked me up in her hot new Subaru! We were... Continue Reading →
April 6 2018 Lisa and I Today we drove to Old Fort NC to hike Catawba Falls. We arrived about 9 and the parking lot was empty. When we left it was completely full. It's a nice path along a stream. The first thing you see is the partial remains of an old building that... Continue Reading →
Daina, Cooper and I March 10, 2018 Daina was home from Clemson this weekend and we were trying to find a good hike with views. She talked about table rock which I've done twice but is super hard. I was looking for somewhere I haven't been but there was a lot of afternoon rain in... Continue Reading →
3/3/18 Sherri Mcmurray, Lori Vogel and I. Wilson's Creek is a beautiful unspoiled area west of Lenoir NC. It's very undeveloped and is primarily used for camping, hiking, kayaking and trout fishing. Mike and I went car camping up there in October and I've been wanting to go back. It's very beautiful. Wilson's Creek is... Continue Reading →

We make a couple of stops our final one at McDonalds in Brevard for breakfast and a pitstop. Sherri... Continue Reading →
Lisa and I February 2, 2018 I have decided to call hiking with Lisa Adventure Hiking. If I ever thought hiking in mountains was mountain climbing it really isn't unless you do it Lisa's way. She likes to pick places that are basically unknown. These places are generally un-marked trails but someone wrote and article... Continue Reading →
Mike, me and our 2 dogs Tucker and Cooper. 1/19/2018 This day started with an out of the way BBQ place off Farrow Road in Columbia. It was called Big Bulls Bang'n BBQ. It was awesome! Mike always googles and finds the most off the beaten path things. We got to the park around 12:00... Continue Reading →
1/21/2018 Sherri and I Just off of a really cold spell, then a snow day we tried to chase frozen waterfalls last weekend. Now it's going to be 65 degrees today. We went to a most underrated spot. I really never hear anything about Pilot Mountain. It was a great hike. We hiked every mile... Continue Reading →
