First Hike! North Carolina, USA

My best friend and I just conquered our first hike! Located in NC off the Yadkin River, we gained about 200 feet in elevation on the way with a total of 2.4 miles! We’re both on a weight loss journey and have found hiking to be challenging, rewarding, and fun! We were lucky enough to see this turtle laying eggs.🥹 We found recently hatched nests nearby. Don’t worry, we were very careful not to disturb her and we moved along quickly. It was worth every step. Here’s a few pics!
