Fances, Jennifer, Sandra, Amy, and myself all made the hike to Cloudland Canyon. It was a super day, we leftthe carpool location timely, made it to the site and hiked w/o seeing but 10 people all day! Heck, all ofus took off our hiking pants and changed into shorts w/o worrying about others around.

The scenery is always beautiful over the canyon, and with the sun setting quicker, we noticed the shadowsover the canyon. When we ate lunch we saw a hawk soaring over the canyon and could hear the leavesrustling.

Once we made it back to the trailhead with a lot of time to spare, we hiked down toward the waterfalls.On the way a large rock protrudes from the cliff, making for an excellent photo-op (picture coming soon!). As you can see inthe picture, our group helped defy gravity and gave nature some help. Due to the severe drought plaguingGA, the waterfall was more of a water spill. Ohh well.

All in all, wed go back and do it again, it was a cool hike! No stop off for dinner this time, perhapsin the future.

PS - If anyone would like to send pics to Todd Biggs or Patrick Barryfor the website please do so, we had lots of photographers and the views were fantastic, especially the ones taken byAmy, Frances and Jennifer. Oh..I dont have Sandras e-mail, so feel free to forward.
