We hoofed it (or so the GPS devices indicated) getting in 6.1 miles in 2 hours. It didn't seem that fast, though. We even took several very short water breaks.

Our group was terrific. Everyone showed up early, ready to hike! Congratulations to Jan T. for being first to the top of the warm-up hill today. And she made it look easy! Jean was a close second, only foot-lengths behind.

No falls or slips today, though parts of the river trail were quite muddy. The water level in the river was high, so the Corps of Engineers must be releasing water from the Buford Dam. ~ Joyce
