The High Water Trail and a section of the Appalachian
Trail combine to form a loop. A half mile walk on Rt. 615 will return
hikers to their starting point. The lower section of the trail follows the
Appalachian Trail up the Little Wolf Creek drainage. this is a scenic
section of trail which crosses the Creek many times (trail should not be
taken during heavy periods of rain.) The upper section of the loop is a
blue blazed section of the A.T. used during heavy rainy season. This
section runs along the top of Brushy Mountain.
