Carolina Towns and Trails: Hike, but Stay Hydrated!

http://carolinatrails.blogspot.com/2008/06/eat-drink-and-stay-hydrated.html

Links to Carolina Destinations. Thursday, June 12, 2008. Hike, but Stay Hydrated! While taking a short (2.7 mile) walk one morning during the Texas-style heat wave that recently struck the southeast, I re-lived an important lesson I thought I learned during my first hike in South Carolina: when involved in outdoor activities, one must stay hydrated. I hope I never find out. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). IMAGES ON THIS BLOG. An Overview of the Carolinas. Hiking Trail-Reports (SC, WNC). Island Creek ...

Carolina Towns and Trails: Hanging Around Hanging Rock State Park

http://carolinatrails.blogspot.com/2014/10/hanging-around-hanging-rock-state-park.html

Links to Carolina Destinations. Wednesday, October 01, 2014. Hanging Around Hanging Rock State Park. We chose the easy way (my husband is seventy and has a heart and hip condition) taking the shortest walk up to Cascade Falls. It is stunning, refreshing, and the falls can be seen close up, even wading if you like, so we were not disappointed. (As always, use caution when walking near waterfalls. Ledges are steep and rocks can be slippery from unseen algae.). We stayed at the Singletree Gun and Plough.

Links to Carolina Destinations. Wednesday, September 24, 2014. An Interesting Day in Charleston. I'm taking a break from the Bryson City series for a guest post written by a local author and the post below on Charleston, which is of a more personal nature. This past weekend, we traveled to the lowcountry for a wedding, and while there, we spent a few hours in the historic district.

The rays effervesce through you, waking your muscles, energizing them. You have to move. Get up. Inhale the mountains, the lowcountry, the banks along the sea and you know. It's time to get out.
