Lost in the Woods

 We decided to go on an adventure. We found a hiking trail last year called Cravens House Trail. While we were there, I noticed there was another trail that led to Point Park. Point Park overlooks the Lookout Mountain Battlefield and city of Chattanooga. 

Our goal was to hike to Point Park. We started out just fine, but somewhere along the way we got lost. The sign said it was one and a half miles to Point Park. The longer we kept walking the more I began to question if we were on the right trail. We came to another trail and realized we were not on the right trail. I pulled up the map on my phone and Siri tried taking us back to the same trail we walked. We decided we would ignore Siri and walk the direction we thought we should go. After a while my gut told me we should listen to Siri. I pulled up the trail we were on and found we were on a 13.9-mile trail. It was at that point we decided to listen to Siri.

We found our mistake, but we were too tired to walk. The trail split off and we were too distracted to notice. We walked back to the car and drove to Point Park.

Point Park was breathtaking. We were both in awe. Maddy loves anything military related, so she enjoyed reading the signs throughout the park. There was a trail inside the park we would like to go back and hike. 

We ended up on the Rifle Pits trail, which led to the Guild Trail. It's obvious we are not true hikers!

We joked about being lost in the woods after I made this clip. We then realized we were actually lost and decided we better not joke like that again. 











I didn't do my research before we went to Point Park, but there is a small fee to get in. Kids under fifteen are free, so it really is a good deal. We had an amazing day and made many memories that will last a lifetime.
