It was sunny, 60'ish, and dry. I had had a stressful week due to house purchasing drama and a disappointing hearing on Friday, so I definitely needed some forest time. I headed to the Fawn Lake parking area and figured I'd put together a loop from there. The trails were absolutely perfect, and it wasn't quite as crowded as I thought it would be, but there were quite a few folks there nonetheless. I started down Reasonover and, after the climb, decided to head down Turkey Knob Rd. and Poplar Hill Loop for the first time. That was a good call. I went out and back on those and then continued on Reasonover. This is easily one of my favorite trails in the area. I wish it was about 10 miles longer, though. From Reasonover, I did the Lake View Loop real quick just to see what it was, then on to Lake Julia Gulia Rd.>Camp Summit>Airstrip>Airstrip Tr.> Shelter Rock>Barn Tr (Where I saw two older ladies riding llamas. Not joking.)>Bridal Veil Falls>Corn Mill Shoals>Shoals>Laurel Ridge>Mine Mtn. It was an excellent day on the bike.

ReplyDeleteI hope it holds for a lot longer than that.
