Promoting the development and enjoyment of Tennessee trails.
Tuesday, October 1 — Window Cliffs Trail near Cookeville, moderate, out and back, 5.3 miles. A highly rated trail with a lot of easy creek crossings, a waterfall, cliffs with holes in them, and an optional climb up to some chimney rocks. With so many water crossings, it is best to wear shoes that you can hike in and get wet. Tennis shoes should work. Check the weather forecast within a day of the hike, as earlier forecasts can change dramatically. Choose appropriate layers; bring snacks and/or lunch along with more water than you think you need; use insect repellent in season; gather up hiking poles, sunscreen, and rain jacket as needed. Meet at Durham St, Soddy Daisy, at 8:30 am. Register with the hike leader (required for all Scenic City hikes): Jennifer Davis, (615) 617-2505 or jdavis327@gmail.com. Do not forget hiking/water shoes. Carpool cost: $8.00.
