This route took my friend David and I up the Lumber Ridge Trail, from the Institute at Tremont, connecting in 4mls+, with the Meigs Mountain trail, then turning left onto Curry Mtn. trail down to Little River rd. (3mls+), and across the street to the Metcalf Bottoms Picnic Area where our second vehicle was parked.
There's a cemetery along the Meigs mtn. section with some flat spots nearby where family settlements once stood. The majority of the headstones or markers were nameless, however a few recognized the infamous Huskey family and their lineage in these parts.
This route should be considered difficult, but doable, for the healthy novice hiker given the distance, and that the first ~3.5mls coming out of Tremont is primarily an incline. The trails are currently in good condition with no real stream crossings.
Really, really cool hike. Pleasant, not crowded, easily accessible, and once up on the ridge out of Tremont very moderate in regards to elevation changes. Enjoy and protect.
That was an excellent day.
