My first hike back from injury. I went to Moses Cone Memorial Park on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Located beside Blowing Rock this park is open all winter and has very easy trails. The trails are former carriage roads built by Moses Cone in the early 20th century. I hiked here over a year ago to Flat Top Mountain, which has beautiful views from the fire tower. This time I went to Trout Lake and Rich Mountain. The views aren't as grand but it was still a pleasant hike. A little long for my first hike back, but I still enjoyed getting outside in the mountains.

Hike distance 9.0 miles with 853 feet elevation gain in 4 hours and 30 minutes.
