and also a couple here too.
I had left with my grandchildren and son, Jake on Friday and after waking on Saturday with very little knee pain returned to the hang. I only live 125 miles from the forest, but I put 568 miles on my...
I think I am driving back down to spend the night tonight, Knee ain't bad.
Ha! We could have.....
I went on home tonight. For those who had not arrived yet please accept my regrets that I didn't get to see you all. Going into Jones Branch took a toll on my heel spurs and knee. by the time I got...
There are nearly a dozen here at the pond tonight. Some of us are turning in. See you all tomorrow. Zzzzz
I am heading South, See you all soon.
Well, My grandchildren were coming down for tonight and I don't know how that's going to go, but I will be there this afternoon, and will play it by ear after that. I do plan on hiking into JOnes...
Looks like rain Thursday night, Friday for sure and Friday night. Turning cold starting tonight and staying cold the rest of the weekend.
Just so you know, I am considering changing my plans. I...
I think most cell phones will work up there on the ridge, too. Anyone who wants it can PM me and maybe all of us should share our numbers, then we can help each other not get lost, etc..
True, you may only hear loud hammocks swinging.
On Friday nite we will PROBABLY be West of the cemetery. Its only five minutes from the cemetery to the pond and only 5 minutes West of the cemetery...
Right, but there are several small trails that go off the the right. to be sure you should go till you see the graveyard before you take a right turn. it would be even better to get near the cemetery...
I think the plan is to go West of the cemetery for Friday nite. I have my Rusted moon coffee cup ready.
As you are heading for the cemetery, you turn on a vague trail toward the north or right. Coming from the cemetery you would of course take the vague trail north or left. If you yell at us this side...
This is a shot of the main road to terrell pond several hundred yards from the tower.
Here is what you will see when you are very near.
and this is what you see if you are 3 months late.
Go West till you smell it, North till you ..... feel it. Then turn around and walk out of the water to the campsite. LOL
This map should make it easy to find the pond from the cemetery.
OKay. great. Now getting to the pond can be just a little confusing after dark. So, understand that the big two track goes to the Cemetery. You must go straight where the larger trail turns left for...
Since only a few are coming in on Thursday what say we camp at the pines at the pond itself on Thursday night. Then we can move to West of the grave yard for Friday night and then on to Jones Hollow...
Yes you got it right.
Gabe, even if you don't make it by early afternoon we can walk down when you get there if you want and we have time.
We were going to stay Friday nite West of the Cemetery. Problem is, That will make two nights there for some, since some are going in on Thursday. Friday, right after noon we are day hiking into...
Gabe, what day will you be going into jones hollow? Some of us might want to go before Saturday, too.
(I'm bringing in atleast 5 gallons on my new jetsled (not a pulk yet). Maybe more if remember to hit the store first . My hope is that the second site will have a source to filter from. Then I'll...
I should be there Thursday afternoon too. See you there, Heee
If someone was to bring a small guitar I would bring a lightweight banjo.
Sounds like a blast....
You got it.

Thursday, 77/53, 20%/20%

If anyone would like to post their cell phone number, should we...
Great, I will wait till noon or so at the earliest. Would love to have you along.
Thursday nite some will be there, like HomeMadeHIker and Doctari
I don't know whether I can make it on Thursday, but I'll try.
Check out the link above and posts 168 and 183 for information.
...
I should be there on thursday too. See you there.
LOL, you got me! Yes East east east of the pond...
Absolutely, we will day hike into it perhaps following the spur directly (West-NOT) but EAST of the pond.
I am really looking forward to this. Great map!
I asked my buddy, DeadReckon to help me confirm the position of the so-called Miller hollow, Well, there is no Miller Hollow in that part of the Deam, it is actually called Jone's Hollow.
As...
Yes, I will bring some camera gear. Please see my next post for some information about the Friday Hike and the Saturday Campsite.
Hey, I was looking for a good map of Miller Hollow and I came across this site AND they actually had found and posted a couple of my photos about the Deam there.
I can't remember if I posted them,...
Bonsaihiker, you crack me up. I guess I will have to put up a real photo I have of you somewhere, if you don't mind. LOL
But really, I thought it would be great to be able to recognize one another,...
Thanks Lost Biker, See you there.
Hey Pegleg. It will be good to see you again. Lets swap some trail stories this time.
Sorry you won't be there Acer, and thanks everyone for the photos so far.
I am asking a huge favor here. I have asked it before and never had it happen before a hang, yet.
Here it is. Please post a picture of yourself that we can recognize on this thread if you are coming...

We'll miss you, man
Park at the Tower parking lot on Tower Road. We have decided to keep the original plans for Friday night and then ask everyone what they want to do the rest of the weekend. Welcome to your first...
OH no. I will be hoping to hear from you soon, no matter what. Best wishes. Steve
In some ways I am sorry I asked the questions about where we are going. Every time we have gotten together we have had fun, no matter what. I am leaning on going to the cemetery then asking what...
I agree that cave trail would be thick with horses. and you cannot go into the cave anymore. they have closed it to protect the wildlife inside.
I like all your ideas and actually don't really care that much. I mainly just want to see everyone. I like Farmer John's comment that we don't stay there for both days, AND I like rolloff's idea...
