Scenic spur trail in Ocoee is about a 3.5 mile hike.

 

 

The trail is well marked.

 

 

And other markings too.

 

 

There are some stream crossings and most of the time you can rock hop.

 

 

The rocks are a little slippery but not too bad.

 

 

The Labradoodle puppy  preferred to just run through the water in fact I think She looks forward to the stream crossings.

 

 

Russ decided to keep his shoes dry and walk it barefoot…

 

 

Uh-oh.

Yes, they just slipped off his shoulder.

 

 

Red shirt made sure to put his shoes around his neck. No, his mother didn’t name him “Red Shirt”, I just can not remember his name.

 

 

Jon got it all on video.

 

 

 

It was a little chilly for that bare feet thing if you ask me.

 

 

The first falls or bottom of the lower falls.  This one might not officially count because it’ but I like it.

 

 

The lower falls is really nice. I’m sorry, my model got tired of waiting for me to get set up and is in the process of leaving here.

 

 

If you climb up the hill and through the bushes you can get to the the upper falls.

 

 

It was absolutely worth battling the mud and rocks and laurel thicket to get to it!

 

 

On the way back we met Raja, she’s a 5 month old German Shepard.

 

 

She carries her own dog food and dishes in her backpack/jacket and loves to go hiking.
