Sat 6/6/20 - John Rock Hike, Pisgah National Forest

We took Taryn on her first real hike.  Left around 8:30 am and drove 2.5 hours to Pisgah National Forest and did the John Rock hike. It's a ~5 mile loop to the top of John Rock.  John Rock is a big exposed rock face that overlooks the Blue Ridge mountains and a great view of Looking Glass Rock.

It was great to get out. Taryn cried at first, struggling to fall asleep in Sarah's front carrier, but then slept, was awake at the top of the rock, then slept on the way down.

We went to Mamacitas Taco Temple in Asheville after the hike.  Long day for a 5 mile hike, but it was great to get back into the mountains. It had been way too long.  Got home around 8PM.

5 miles, 3:15 hike time.
