Thompson River
Yesterday we hiked the Foothills Trail from Bad Creek to Thompson River. We parked at the Bad Creek Duke Energy parking lot and started on a spur of the Foothills trail for about 2 miles before actually hiking on the trail itself. The Foothills trail to the river was well maintained and marked. This was my first hike on this trail and really enjoyed it. After returning in the afternoon we had hiked a little over 8 miles. As soon as we reached the car, it started raining. Fortunately, we beat the bad weather again.
