I am going to unravel my stress at Falls & pool of Lower Rockhouse Creek near the Pisgah Fish Hatchery. If you value more than a moment of silent, meditative calm; Up to 8 ppl are welcome to join me.
I will spend up to 2 hours at the falls wading, eating, reading and pretending to meditate.

THIS IS A DOG-PARTICIPANT HIKE. This event is NOT for those who are uncomfortable with the antics of fun-loving dogs.
Well trained dogs (you don’t have to yell.) can be 'off-leash'. 'On leash' during the lunch stop. Small (lap)dogs may carpool. Large dogs will drive themselves.
Remember - hikes led by ‘the Curmudgeon’ tend to have challenging surprises. Wood elves are mischievous in the Spring. Keep yo’ packs zipped!.
We will spend up to 2 hrs at the Falls. There are foot trails to explore into the forest. Come prepared to meditate, practice your Tai-Chi, 森林浴, read a book, prepare a meal, play a flute.
