Cloudland Canyon State Park

Georgia 

 From the Internets: "Located on the western edge of Lookout Mountain, Cloudland Canyon is one of the largest and most scenic parks in the state. Home to thousand-foot deep canyons, sandstone cliffs, wild caves, waterfalls, cascading creeks, dense woodland and abundant wildlife, the park offers ample outdoor recreation. Hiking and mountain biking trails abound. The most popular hiking paths include the short Overlook Trail, strenuous Waterfalls Trail and moderate West Rim Loop Trail. Mountain biking is available at the newly developed Five Points Recreation Area and along the Cloudland Connector Trail. The park also offers disc golf, a fishing pond, trails for horseback riding, picnicking and overlooks. Guests seeking an overnight experience can choose from fully-equipped and comfortable cottages, quirky yurts or many different types of camping and backpacking options including 75 campsites." 

 

 

We left Elkmont a day early in an effort to avoid some forecast heavy rain  and stopped for an overnight at Cloudland - 

 It's been YEARS since we've camped here... 

We were probably in our little motor home... and maybe with sweet EmmaLou for her day at the Running of the Chihuahuas for Cinco de Mayo - lol

I'm pleased to report that the campsites have been upgraded and appear to all be nice and level... The park offers beautiful views and wonderful trails, but we were one nighters and just relaxed at our site and ate leftovers from the fridge...

 

On the way home the next day we felt like we were back ion civilization and  enjoyed a favorite Asian Buffet! - lol -

And a view that feels like home - especially to Craig since 

he fishes over that way often! 

Cloudland Canyon - 

Everything was great! 

[It was nice to have sewer at our site - ]

We'd love to have the time to stay there for a few days!
