What a perfect Weekend to Backpack in February. High of 72 low of 52.
Nice backpack from Steel creek access on the Buffalo River Trail. Then
down to the Old Buffalo River Trail near Snavely Place. Then over to Hemmend in
Hollow over look. Then the OBRT back to Steel Creek.
Marshall, Ernie did 13 miles and David, Joshua and Mark. Did 6
miles. The scramble down from the top of Hemmend in Hollow Falls was a
real workout. Video Link of that Scramble on Youtube.
