Hiking Lake Sequoyah's Kingfisher Trail

Today was a mostly sunny 75 degree day, so we hiked an hour+ at Lake Sequoyah, enjoying the scenery as we traveled the hillside overlooking the lake and dam, and then followed the flagged future loop at the northern end of the stem trail. Much undergrowth has began budding, and soon the trees will be greening up too.



We had biked/hiked the trail a few weeks ago and those pictures and comments can be found here.



The numerous up-and-downs and rugged trail, studded with constant rock outcroppings, makes a wonderful hiking trail or a very strenuous and technical mountain bike trail. And once it is extended it will be even better!




After a lunch at Sonic, we then biked 13 miles -- a great way to spend a Spring day of retirement. Ellen got to use her new biking ensemble for the first time, and here it is!
