I've been thinking about hiking into Yates for the hang on Thursday morning. I haven't decided if I want to go northbound via the Uwharrie Trail or Dutchman's Creek or if I want to do the "big climb" by going southbound on the Uwharrie Trail. Here's the routes I'm looking at (if you click on the "profile" icon next to the names then it will display all the ups, downs, lengths, etc): https://caltopo.com/m/B3UEOriginally Posted by Silverpalm2x
Looks like a decent hike but working on the Thursday befor the hang.

Got two more trees for a noobie? This would be my first group hang.
Wonder how Lake Yates looks today? It's gotta be huge!

Peeeeetey, I have great respect for you.

You also are a serious competitor, I figure you’re thinking I’m gonna cheat, I know you’re gonna cheat. So don’t blame me, when you made me cheat!

Feel free to change or add, on account of, you are Yates. You can be a judge, Snwcmpr, even though your eyes are not beady!
You can even offer a mug of your world famous coffee as a prize. Highly desirable—all in fun
