Laurel Falls/Cove Mountain
This was a car shuttle. I met Brenda and Joel at North Shore and then we met Chris at Sugarlands. It was my longest hike in a while and the first 4 miles were uphill. Fortunately, the grade and the pace were neither demanding so it was a lovely hike. overall, it was a much more pleasant trail and hike than I remembered. Only the last couple of miles were rather rough and in the sun. Lovely day.
