April 20, 2024 - Cedar Creek Trail and part of Narrow Passage Road

Picture of the Day 

        This blog chronicles the hikes I've completed in the "Lee 333 Challenge". I named the challenge "333" because in my first calculation of the total mileage it added up to 333 miles. However, since then I discovered it was not that simple. I've found many trails not on the maps or in guidebooks as well as numerous abandoned logging roads. I haven't set a challenge deadline because I can't dedicate myself 100% to it. However, if the SNAP 500 (or SHEN 500) can be done in one year, I don't see any reason why a dedicated enthusiast couldn't complete the "Lee 333" in under a year also.

Today's Hike:
Distance: 4.25
Duration: 3.43
Ascent: 506ft
PATC Difficulty: 65

Lee 333 Progress Summary:
Trails: 49 of 176
Trail Miles: 174.73 of 416.41 miles (241.68 miles to go)
Hiked Miles: 273.91 miles
Total Ascent: 63952.5 feet

Some kind of amphibian, perhaps a Common Mudpuppy

Looks like a nice creek but it's the trail!
