TrailBlazers (7 humans and one dog, Miles) hiked at Chaffee Crossing Sunday afternoon, December 18th. Starting from the McClure amphitheater parking lot, we crossed the road and got on the paved trail that goes through the woods. We noticed lots of construction going on down the hillside. After crossing the road, the trail continued through the woods till we reached Torraine Lake. We hiked the lake counter clockwise, crossing the bridge and arriving at the parking lot (which now has rest rooms). The trail goes down the hill completing the circle around the lake. From there we backtracked to the McClure parking lot. The hike was approximately 5+ miles - a good workout on a pleasant Sunday afternoon. Join us next Saturday when we travel to Mt. Nebo for a 3 mile hike around the rim of the mountain.

Four TrailBlazers hiked at Cove Lake on a cool, cloudy day. Starting from the small parking area by the bridge, we hiked along the lake trail for a short distance then headed up the mountain. From the top there is a view of Mt. Magazine in the distance. After meandering around, we found our way back down to the trail by the lake. There were several small creek crossings as we made our way to the park area. There are picnic tables and rest rooms scattered through the park. After eating lunch. we walked through the park and across the bridge back to our car. It was a good day to be outdoors.
