BSF – Honey Creek Oneida, TN.

Wednesday Dec 4 –  BSF – Honey Creek  Joint hike with Upper Cumberland Chapter. This is one of the best hikes we do, featuring waterfalls, rock houses, and gorge overlooks. BRING WATER SHOES and extra socks JUST IN CASE. Short Hike: 3.5 mile half of the loop exiting the trail at the overlook with a road walk back to the cars. Long Hike: The trail is 6 miles and is fairly difficult because of rock scrambles, stream crossings, and steep slopes. View are definitely worth the effort. Also, a portion of the hike is in a creek bed, so if we get a bunch of rain in the days before the hike – bring water shoes. A hundred yards or so of the creek bed is slippery and must be hiked w/extreme care. Depart from the Crossville Cracker Barrel rear lot SW corner at 8:00 am CDST. Carpool cost is $6. Bring more water than you think you need.  Bring hiking poles, wear hiking boots, rain gear, (electrolytes) water, lunch and a snack. Don’t forget tick/bug spray and sunscreen. Persons aged 18 and over, members and non-members welcome. Minors must be accompanied by an adult.  For additional information contact the hike coordinator Deb Westervelt via email plateauhikes68@tennesseetrails.org or text/call 931-267-2243
