    Oct 7 - Little Green Mountain
    Moderate to strenuous (Details)
    The hike to Little Green is a favorite among many Lake Toxaway property owners.
    On this hike, we'll go to Little Green and then explore some of the trails nearby.
    Oct 14  - Looking Glass Rock
    Moderate to Strenuous. (Details) This popular hike gives you  breathtaking views of the
    fall foliage throughout Shining Rock Wilderness. There is a 1,700-foot elevation
    change but spread out over 3 miles so it's gradual but steady. Bring water and lunch.
    Oct 28 - Rough Run Falls
    Moderate (Details) This is an easy hike near Cashiers, north of Lake Glenville. It’s a
    mostly level walk to two waterfalls. The first, High Falls, is a dramatic strait drop. A
    few minutes further is the tow-tiered Rough Run Falls.  The rocks surrounding the
    pool at the base of the waterfall is a good spot to rest and eat a picnic.
Meet at Amore Cafe Friday mornings, 8:45 am
