Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue.
This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary.

Itinerary:

 

Thank you Donna P. for being the Artistic Director of the promo pics.

The only new part of this hike is the parking lot and the first 2 miles.

We will start at Andrew Cove Campground Trail, hiking along Andrew Creek for a couple of miles, expect some blowdowns as it's one of the "less maintained" trails.

Then we turn west on the AT to Rocky Mtn, turnaround and take the AT East until we reach Tray Mtn.

Lunch at the top of Tray Mtn, then 4 miles down hill back to the cars.

Total elevation gain is about 3500ft.
