Virgin Falls - Sparta, TN

Back in October of 2010, Jeremy and I did our first big overnight hike.  We went to Virgin Falls in Sparta, TN.  It was a 4.5 mile hike to the falls and back.  We hiked to the falls and set up our tent right next to the waterfall.  It was such a great weekend to do this hike.

The hike to the falls had it's ups and downs.  It wasn't easy for a beginner hiker like myself, but I made it through.  On the way back to our car was the worst part.  We had to take many breaks to make it through. We were running low on water and Jeremy started to get cramped up from dehydration.  In the end, this is a hike we would try again b/c of what we know now.  It would be a great bench mark to test ourselves from.
