It is Pete here again and what a difference a day makes. The Hiking Machine carried the Big Lummox on two straight days, last Friday and Saturday. On the hike Friday, we headed to Buffalo Mountain Park in Johnson City. While the forecast was for clear skies it was cloudy, cold and spitting snow (plus snow on the ground), just like I like it. A course the Lummox was whining about how it was steep, slick and cold...what a wuss! So while I wanted to head out to Tip-Top the Lummox just wanted to head to the car, but at least we got to do a new trail on the way back, Tower Ridge.
So, the next day when we headed to Panther Creek State Park it was totally different warm, no snow and not too steep. So, I will cut the Lummox some slack on this one because he is right that the trails are blazed terribly and the map was worthless. If it wasn't for me accurate trail sense he would have got lost. Anyway, it was a nice easy hike that he again cut short because he had to get back and cook. Well, it was better to get out than not that is what old Pete says...
