We left for this trail in high spirits because I had read some decent things about the Shaorki trail in Eno River. We had to walk Buckquarter Creek and Ridge trails to get there and I enjoyed Ridge more than the end goal of the Shakori. We had a decent time though and did it quickly so Joey and I decided to embark on the Holden's Mill trail/loop. That ended up being pretty scenic along the river and then on the way back makes a pretty decent climb. I would like to go camping one night and actually hang out on the rocks on the river at night time and see the stars. Will be doing that soon.
<----- This is what I mean when I say I want to camp out and just lay by the rocks on the river. This is the kind thing I am referring to. This is from the Holden's Mill loop. (Click on 720 HD for best quality)
We found this house while on the Buckquarter Creek trail. We had to go off the trail to see it up close. was pretty creepy.
Lots of rocks and some moving water to see for most of the way, especially on the Holden's Mill trail.
