Baskins Creek Trail

On Thursday, March 22nd, Kevin and I hiked Baskins Creek Trail before he went to work.  This wasn't a wildflower hotspot, but there was alot of Trailing Arbutus and a great waterfall!

Trailing Arbutus, Epigaea repens, also known as Mayflower.  This is said to be the earliest flowering species in the Smokies and is found in dry pine-oak forests.

Baskins Creek Falls is a great waterfall and we didn't see a single person on the trail!
