Friday we departed Memphis around 9:30AM and made the drive to Mammoth Caves National Park. We arrived around 3:45PM and checked into our campsite around 4:15.
There is lots of hiking in the area and since our cave tickets are tomorrow we decided to take a hike, but we forgot the map. Using my phone we managed to make our way to the Green River, it really is green and has a ferry for car crossings. I plan to put the Serenity Falcon on it tomorrow afternoon if they will let me.
We even saw some deer on our hike, they were not the least bit disturbed by us.
By the time we got back to camp we had trekked just over 4 miles (per my watch), it was a good walk.
I have to say our campsite is one of the worst we have ever had. I have been in driveways much more level, but for $12, I guess I should not complain. We will tough it out for one night.
We have tickets for a cave tour tomorrow at 12:15PM.
Hope you don't get stuck in the cave! Which tour are you taking?
ReplyDeleteWee took the Historical Tour at 12:15; barely got in. Fred has an app now, CAMPNAB, to help get tickets and campsites. It is great.
DeleteMammoth caves are a must see in my book, plenty of hiking trails too.
