Indian Boundary Recreation Area

east-tennessee

September 9, 2023 @ 8:00 am 5:00 pm

This is an easy trail around Indian Boundary Lake. The loop is 3.1 miles on a very nice hiking-biking trail along the shoreline with only minor ups and downs. After the hike, we will picnic and swim. We will start our hike and picnic at the swimming area which has a broad sandy beach and restrooms. The hike is rated as easy. We recommend shoes to wear to and from the hike plus sturdy hiking shoes, other weather appropriate clothing, swimsuit, a snack, a drink and a camera. There is an Indian Boundary Recreation Area parking fee – $3 per vehicle ($1.50 if you have an Interagency Pass/Golden Passport or Regional/Forest Pass #)

For those who want to carpool, we leave from Denny’s Restaurant off the Watt Road Exit off I-75 South at 8:00 am. We will stop at Tellico Grain Co for their delicious pastries. We expect to arrive at the Indian Boundary swimming area/trailhead by 10:00 am and start the hike at 10:15 am. Carpool dollars are requested of all riders. Round trip from Knoxville is about 160 miles.

For specific information about the hike please contact Tom at 588-5622 and leave a message or send an email to cressler@retiree.utk.edu before September 9th.

ECOSYSTEM

Positive growth.

Nature, in the common sense, refers to essences unchanged by man; space, the air, the river, the leaf. Art is applied to the mixture of his will with the same things, as in a house, a canal, a statue, a picture.

But his operations taken together are so insignificant, a little chipping, baking, patching, and washing, that in an impression so grand as that of the world on the human mind, they do not vary the result.

The sun setting through a dense forest.
Wind turbines standing on a grassy plain, against a blue sky.
The sun shining over a ridge leading down into the shore. In the distance, a car drives down a road.

Undoubtedly we have no questions to ask which are unanswerable. We must trust the perfection of the creation so far, as to believe that whatever curiosity the order of things has awakened in our minds, the order of things can satisfy. Every man’s condition is a solution in hieroglyphic to those inquiries he would put.
