Doyles Falls Hike
Once we had the T@B-400 comfortably ensconced on Site 58 at Loft Mountain we headed to MP 81 and the Doyles River Falls Trail. It's a fun walk through the woods, no panoramic views on this trail, just a continual downward slope. Partway down we were advised that there...

It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week.
