Promoting the development and enjoyment of Tennessee trails.
Glen Rognstad will lead us on the hike at Tishomingo. Tishomingo is a public recreation area in the foothills of the Appalachian Mtns located south of Iuka, MS. A major feature is Bear Creek Canyon and it generous sandstone outcroppings and the swinging bridge. This is a 6-7 mile hike winding along rocky ridges with spectacular views thru shallow form-filled canyons. We will cross the Bear Creek swinging bridge that was constructed in the 1930’s. Hiking boots are recommended along with clothing appropriate for the weather. We will meet at Panera Bread in Jackson at 7:15 and leave promptly at 7:30 a.m. or meet at the parking area near the bridge at Tishomingo. Bring water, snacks and lunch. Most likely we will stop for an early dinner after the hike. Please register with Glen at 731-217-5966 or glenrognstad@gmail.com (register by Friday, October 28).
