Day Hike

Saturday, February 18th

We had great weather for our 5 mile hike in the Dennis Cove area of Carter County on Saturday, Feb 18th. 

 
We hiked to Laurel Falls, one of the areas best waterfalls.
 
In the morning we had the trail to ourselves, but by early afternoon the trail got busy.
 
We couldn’t have asked for better hiking weather!
