We are enough miles into our goal that the time has come to start doubling up on trails. We had our
first trip to Withrow Springs in January. Like most parks though, it has more than one trail. We went here today for the Dogwood Trail because we are in the last days of the dogwood bloom. This was a pretty little trail, and by little we mean 2/3 of a mile. As we came around the last turn and saw the van, we realized our kids had turned a corner in their hiking. We had completed the trail in only twenty minutes, and the unanimous response from the kids was "That's all!" We are proud to say that according to our kids any hike under three miles almost isn't worth their time.
So, we headed back to the War Eagle trail that we had done in January. April though is a much better time for enjoying the swimming hole. One of the nice things about four boys, is that swimming can be enjoyed even if you forget to bring suits.
Travel time from home: 35 minutes
