Cherokee Trail near Fort Collins, Colorado, heads north toward the Oregon and California Trail.

From a sketch of 1859.

Wikipedia:

The Cherokee Trail was a historic overland trail through the present-day U.S. states of Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, and Wyoming that was used from the late 1840s up through the early 1890s. The route was established in 1849 by a wagon train headed to the gold fields in California. Among the members of the expedition were a group of Cherokee Indians.

Deer Encounter at Stone Mountain, 20 September 2015

Deer Encounter at Stone Mountain, 20 September 2015

While out walking along the Cherokee Trail at Stone Mountain Sunday, 20 September 2015, I ran across a deer meandering around in the woods. This was on the section of the trail that runs beside Robert E. Lee Drive, somewhere between the one, one and a half, or  two mile markers. I started recording video and was fortunate that no one came along jogging or walking dogs to scare it away.

Cherokee Trail - Stone Mountain

There's nothing quite like taking a day off from work in the middle of the week and going for a hike. It clears the head, and the trails are usually a little less crowded. On this day, the @GlacierBandits met up at Stone Mountain to hike both the Walkup Trail and the Cherokee Trail.

You know what they say about "best laid plans put to waste?" Well, the original plan was to intersect with the Cherokee Trail on the way up, circumnavigate the mountain on that trail, and then finish with a hike up to the top. But we missed the trail intersection, and wound up starting at the top. No worries. We headed back down to find the Cherokee Trail. (If you want to see the views from the top, check out the blog post from November).

So, on the way down, we found the trail, and started to circumnavigate counter-clockwise. Why choose that direction? No reason, really. We just hung a left going west. The trail starts dipping down off the mountain across bare granite, and then heads into single-track into the woods. This would be a great diversion on a hot day, because much of it is in the shade. And then it crosses over the railroad. The tracks are active, although it's just a tourist train excursion, but still look out for the train and don't do anything silly like camp on the tracks or plan to have lunch there.

Once you get over the tracks, you'll see some evidence of a prior civilization. The only thing left is the chimney. It looks like the bench is new.

Along the way, you get good views of the mountain on your left (if you choose to walk around clockwise, you will see the mountain on your right - useless bit of trivia really). 

The change in the experience is fascinating, because you go from bare open faced granite on the top of the mountain to walking through woods, to walking along lakes at the bottom. It's a real treat to pass through all of these hiking zones as you go around.

You'll pass by a covered bridge, and then walk along a concrete barrier right next to the water. Then you'll wind up at a water mill. The nice thing about this is it's such a surprise.

Pay careful attention to the direction of the trail here. It's not like you are going to get lost outside of civilization, but there are a lot of trails around here, so pay attention as you navigate around the mill. The trail then continues around the mountain, crosses over the railroad tracks again (remember my earlier warning about that), and ends up just below the great Mt-Rushmore like sculpture carved into the granite.

Finally, it heads back up onto the big slab of granite, and intersects with the walkup trail. This area reminded me a bit of Yosemite National Park. 

If you go:

Bring water. There are water fountains at the walkup trail trailhead and also at the visitor center on top of the mountain. There is a snack shop under the stone carvings, so you could theoretically get food and ice cream there as well.

The trail goes down off the mountain over bare rock. When it's wet, it could get slippery. Those with Vibram on the soles of their boots will probably be fine, but running shoes will tend to slip. Not that you can't go, just be aware of the limitations.

Make it a nice family day hike. Combining both trails, it was probably about a 6-7 mile day. Nice views, great scenery, and a chance to explore the woods, the summit, and the surrounding area.

There is plenty of fish in the water, so you could conceivably fish. I don't know the rules and regulations, so check with the local DNR before doing so (or ask at the main gate).
