April/May Hiking Trip.

Day 2. Monday, April 29th.

Tallulah Gorge State Park, GA.

My photos.

The Shortline bike trail was the best part of this day. We rode it twice. FINALLY got some quiet time in the woods. This place is SO noisy from the highway, but the Shortline was cool, quiet and pleasant.

This day was a huge disappointment. the place has a ton of rules and a schedule for water releases. We planned our entire trip around hiking the gorge using their schedule. We get their early Monday morning (only 100 passes per day allowed) and were told they're decided to extend the water release. WTF?! This is actually the 2nd time this happened to us. The first was on another trip and we detoured 200+ miles to hike the gorge, but it started sprinkling when we arrived and they closed it. And the girl at the campground was rude that day, so we didn’t even camp. Don't think we'll go back here again.

Steve's photos here. We're still on the boat approaching Tendaba camp. Don't let the oil hat fool ya. He does something high-end with environmental policy and planning. Dedicated birder as well. Great at spotting, and invariably right on the orders and families even if he didn't know the local species. A pleasure to have as a tour companion -- I benefitted greatly from his experience, and hopefully didn't drag him down.

And the girl at the campground was rude that day, so we didn’t even camp. Don't think we'll go back here again.

April/May Hiking Trip.

Day 2. Monday, April 29th.

Tallulah Gorge State Park, GA.

My photos.

The Shortline bike trail was the best part of this day. We rode it twice. FINALLY got some quiet time in the woods. This place is SO noisy from the highway, but the Shortline was cool, quiet and pleasant.

This day was a huge disappointment. the place has a ton of rules and a schedule for water releases. We planned our entire trip around hiking the gorge using their schedule. We get their early Monday morning (only 100 passes per day allowed) and were told they're decided to extend the water release. WTF?! This is actually the 2nd time this happened to us. The first was on another trip and we detoured 200+ miles to hike the gorge, but it started sprinkling when we arrived and they closed it. And the girl at the campground was rude that day, so we didn’t even camp. Don't think we'll go back here again.

Having a great time at summer camp. Don't worry about me but please send snack money.

Love,
