Write Up:We had a beautiful day for hiking,
ideal weather, 60ish and sunny. We
began at the Dickey Ridge trail head,
about a half mile before the northern
park entrance to SNP and walked
into the park. The hike was an out
and back with a short loop at the end
around the Snead Farm. The first
part of the hike was a steady but low
grade incline. We stopped for a
quick break at the Visitor at about
mile 4. We continued up Dickey
Ridge until the Snead Farm turn off
at about mile 6. From this point the
rest of the hike was down hill. We
lunched in the ruins of the house at
the farm. On the return, we looped
around Fox Meadow trail across
from the Visitor Center after another
short pit stop and then continued
north again on Dickey Ridge. It was
a long hike and everyone was tired
by the time we got back to the cars at
the trail head.
