Description: Please join me for an early spring hike beginning at 8:30 a.m. We will meet at the lake parking lot for a 5 peak hike including: Hanging Rock, Wolf Rock, House Rock, Cook’s Wall, and Moore’s Knob. We will hike from the new connector trail to Hanging Rock first then hike back to the Wolf Rock/Cook’s Wall trails. Coming back we will hike the Moore’s Wall Loop via the the Magnolia Springs connector and have lunch at the Tower. I plan to descend the steps and connect back to do an additional loop of Moore's Wall trail. Since we will be hiking on a surface of gravel/dirt/rock with some uneven steps, poles are recommended. Please feel free to join this hike if you want to do 1, 2, 3, 4, or all peaks!!
