SUMMARY:A.T. VISTA:  Koonford Bridge Hike and Shook Branch Rec. Area Picnic
DESCRIPTION:The 2021 Appalachian Trail VISTA program will consist a set of 
 hikes along the A.T. and nearby trails with photos and videos posted that 
 evening followed by a montage released in October 2021.  To keep this eve
 nt easy/family friendly and examine an excellent feat of wilderness constr
 uction\, I chose to lead a recommended walk from the Dennis Cove trailhead
  to Koonford Bridge (as featured in March 2021 club newsletter) and back. 
  The path is a level rails-to-trail conversion except for the last short 
 section down to the stream and bridge.  This hike will not visit Laurel F
 alls with its many rock steps from this direction.\n\nAfter the hike\, we 
 can relocate the group to Shook Branch Recreation Area on Watauga Lake to 
 enjoy the picnic lunch everyone brings for themselves.  (Park has bathroo
 ms.)  We can also check out one of the club’s newest bridges constructe
 d nearby.\n\nThe caravan will leave Colonial Heights Ingles parking lot by
  9am to arrive at the trailhead parking area around 10am.  (Alternatively
 \, just meet there but let us know you’re coming!)  The hike will be ro
 ughly hour and half including time to possibly toss rocks into the stream.
   The picnic area is 15 minutes away from the trailhead\, and then we’l
 l stay as long as the group decides.   Please call/text/e-mail the hike 
 leader to know headcount or if last-minute changes.
