Laurel Snow Pocket Wilderness - Wayne


Our chapter did a joint hike with the Upper Cumberland chapter, led by Gary Kimbrell.  Twelve hikers participated including Murfreesboro chapter members Jan Safavi, Sara Pollard and Wayne Yancey, together with members of Upper Cumberland, Soddy Daisy, Nashville and East Tennessee chapters. Weather was overcast and in the mid 30's all day, but no rain.

We hiked up toward Snow Falls, but were not able to cross Morgan Creek do to high water and swift current.  Then proceeded to Buzzard Point for great views of Dayton and the Tennessee River.  We then returned crossing Richland Creek and assending to Laurel Falls, which was flowing very nicely.  Total distance covered was 11.7 miles.
