What a great hike today to the Mountain Bridge Wilderness Area. Twenty Five of us gathered at the Holly Springs Mart off Hwy 11 and headed to Caesars Head State Park for a moderate to strenuous 9 mile hike to Raven Gap Falls and then to the suspension bridge off the Gum Gap Trail. This area has 40,000 acres of wilderness containing over 50 miles to the best hiking trails in the state. We stoped at the Ranger Station to purchase a trail map....not that we needed one (our leader takes care of that), but I like to have my own map so I can see where I'm going and where I've been.
