Friday Hikers: Laurel River, NC April 6, 2012

Collins Chew reporting

We had a beautiful day with early clouds for our annual 7-mile wildflower hike on Laurel River, NC. The night’s rain had dropped the flowers in the morning, but they recovered well during the day. Lunch was at the abandoned site of Runion as usual. The river flow was heavy and we spent a fair amount of time watching kayakers and rafters going through the very impressive rapids. Hikers were: Kathy Case, Carol and Dave Dunham, Jerry Jones, Jan Mather, Susie Seiler, Shirley and Lowell Toof and Collins Chew.
