Ingalls Lake

Couldn't get away for the
whole weekend so I salvaged Sunday and headed East. Ended up in the Teanaway River area truckin' down Road 9737. Its in pretty good shape by the way. Made the trailhead parking area at the end of the road and hit trail 1390 at 2:10pm. 100 hikes book said hiking time 8 hours for a round trip of 9 miles. Steady pace would have gotten me to Ingalls Lake in just over 2 hours, but the scenery kept begging me to store it for posterity inside my picture machine. I will have to return to this trail with more time on my hands. The scenery is gorgeous and there are a multitude of trails leading to other fascinating destinations. Trail is in great shape and is found by more people than I expected but still not so many to spoil the experience. My pedometer said the round trip was over 10 miles. Made it back to the van before dark but it was hard to leave after so short a stay.
