Bent Creek Hike
Saturday, November 28th was a great hike day- mostly because I visited with Mandy, Chris and Quacker the dog, in their neck of the woods and hiked in the Bent Creek Area. We got started at the trail head about 11:00. Perfect weather, about 50 degrees with mostly sunny skies. Mandy chose to take me on the Ingles Field Gap Trail. She, Chris and the kids bike this alot and also run here. It was mostly a moderate hike with some difficulty with a elevated climb in 900 feet. At the top was a clear few of west Asheville. This was my longest hike todate - 7.5 miles. It felt great and no knee problems. I did purchase some hiking poles and used them today, so that probably helped with the knees.
