Land-locked during the last half of 2015 and unable to get out paddling on the Chattahoochee River, the time did offer me additional chances to hike the many trails along the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA).

The CRNRA is a tremendous resource with (I would guess) hundreds of miles of hiking trails, bike paths and of course plenty of nature-watching, picture-taking, boating and fishing opportunities.

Here are a few pictures from the last days of 2015 along the river, creeks and trails. Here’s hoping you have a great, happy and healthy New Year in 2016!
