I was a little out of shape when I made this climb so it hurt. There are some steeeeep sections but if you're reading this you most likely enjoy the challenge and like to climb so old hat, right? At the top hang a left and take in the great view of Lookout Mt., the Tennessee River, and the city of Chattanooga. The 5 mile loop at the top is good fun with excellent views. The top half the decent is really fast and smooth, but the second half of the decent is also really fast but basically outside of the park (instead a town/county road) and so not nearly as smooth with some terrible road patches and potholes. Be careful. I'd like to say if I made this climb now I would rate it's difficulty at Challenging instead of Strenuous because its not very long but I could be wrong. Enjoy!
