May 31, 2021 - Wolf Gap Farm Pond Trail, Ex-Logging Road and some Bushwhacking

Picture of the Day
Wolf Gap Farm Pond

     This blog chronicles the hikes I've completed in the "Lee 333 Challenge". I haven't set a challenge deadline because I can't dedicate myself 100% to it. However, if the SNAP500 (or SHEN500) 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: 1.74
Duration: 1:29
Ascent: 340ft
PATC Difficulty: 34

Lee 333 Progress Summary:
Trails: 46 of 169
Trail Miles: 135.31 of 407.05 miles (271.74 miles to go)
Hiked Miles: 237.29 miles

Not up there

Or over there

There it is!

There's fish in there somewhere

The logging road petered out :(

I bushwhacked out to the road via this campsite and road walked back to the car.
