Ramblin' On... : July 4th Hike(s) with Noel and Felix. First we tried to hike up to the AT on the OVT but it led through a cow field and was not well marked so we drove back on 19E towards the TN/NC border and jumped on the AT for a 9.3 mile hike

Looking up from the cow field

The first 2.2 mile hike started from Hampton Creek Rd. My map showed a trail that connected to the AT but we finally got tired of the gates, cows and cow shit. Jumped into the car and drove back towards Elk Park to get on the AT where it crossed the road.
