What was supposed to be a joint hike with the Nashville chapter, ended up being 3 hikers - 2 from Murfreesboro and 1 from the Highland Rim chapter. There was a chance of rain in the forecast, but we only had rain on the drive home. We left a car at the Ozone Falls parking area and drove to the top of Black Mountain to begin our hike. Since there was a lot of foliage on the trees, we didn't have views on this section. But it's a well-maintained trail, had dry creek beds to rock hop across and beautiful stone steps. There was a newly built bridge over a creek but not much water flowing. There was water at Ozone Falls and several folks were swimming in the pool below. After driving back up Black Mountain to retrieve our other vehicle, we hiked over to the Grassy Cove overlook and saw the new bridge that was recently built there. The hikers were Jim Barritt, Sara Pollard and J.C. Saunders.
