We set out this morning for Brasstown Bald, but when we got to the road up the mountain, it was gated. Road Closed! Probably ice on the road, or perhaps trees down; but, with 2.5 miles and 2000' of elevation gain to deal with on the way to the summit, we opted not walk in.
Instead, we went a little further west and south, on 180, then 19/129, to Vogel State Park. We hiked around the lake, visited the waterfall, and generally checked the place out.
Trahlyta Falls comes off the spillway from the dam that forms the lake at Vogel State Park. |
Lake Trahlyta and start of spillway; Vogel's facilities are at head of lake. |
