Photographs and commentary by Dick Snoke
In mid-August 2019 the Sonny Day Hikers did an exploratory hike on a bit of trail none of us had ever hiked before, and now we wonder why not. The trail is a relatively flat section of the AT, at least the 2.3 miles or so we traveled before turning back. A very pleasant, not overly difficult hike.
Surprisingly, we found a variety of wild flowers blooming. Most notable was three separate clumps of Turk’s Cap Lilys (Lilium superbum if you wan the Latin name.) According to our resident expert, these are rare in Georgia but more common further north.
