Carolina Mountain Club Challenges:
- 100 Favorite Trails, Ramsey Cascades
- 100 Waterfalls, Ramsey Cascades
Phyllis invited us to hike Ramsey Cascades, a hike on the 100 Favorite Trails Challenge that we both need. I haven't been focusing on this challenge for a long time - this is hike #80 for me on the challenge. We were joined by Paul, Jim, Judy, and Lori. It was a warm humid day, so I was dripping sweat during the climb. Everything looks so vivid green after spending time in Colorado. The trail is rocky and rooty but in good shape. A trail crew is working on trail improvements 4 days a week, so they've closed the trails to hikers Monday-Thursdays. The trail has a couple of very sturdy log bridges - they look like they are new. The first few photos are courtesy of Phyllis.
