This hike was done in the afternoon of September 2. You drive past the trailhead to a small dirt parking area on the opposite side of Dry Creek Road. This sign is a short distance down the trail as you follow a tributary off from the Sinking Creek.
The elevation gain is 1276 feet, with many switchbacks to help with the climb.
Your climb is rewarded with a picnic table and a bench for resting and viewing the vista view of Johnson City, TN.
The first photo is a magnified photo of the view, and the last is an actual one. The two-mile return trip was so much easier and faster. We spent considerable time resting and ate lunch at the top. Our total time was 3 hours 25 minutes. Total distance:e 4.09 miles.
