A Fun Fall Adventure at Brown’s Mount

The weather has finally cooled down, and Fall is here! That means it’s prime adventure time!

We thought going for a nice, peaceful hike would be a good way to round out the weekend, so we made plans to visit Kylo Ren’s favorite hiking spot yesterday afternoon. We were only going to take Kylo, but as we were heading out the door, Sophie frantically ran up to Bobby and meowed wildly. Then she turned around and did the same thing to me. She made it pretty clear that she didn’t want to be left behind, so we packed her up too and headed out.

When we arrived at Brown’s Mount, we were pleased to see an empty parking lot. It’s always nice to have the hiking trail to ourselves!

Sophie was all about exploring the trail, but Kylo was in more of a contemplative adventuring mood. He would walk for a little bit, then stop to sniff around. He really likes fallen logs.

Sophie practiced her climbing skills! (Okay… Bobby may have helped her with the tree climbing…)

Kylo climbed his first tree too! He’s never shown any interest in climbing trees before, but he climbed up an old tree stump this time. I wish I had been quick enough to catch it on video. Even though there wasn’t a very good landing spot for him on that stump, he sat up there for about 10 minutes and looked around. He was quite pleased with himself.

Another great hike in the books! If you’re in Macon and are looking for a nice, quiet place to hike, Brown’s Mount is the place to go. It’s tucked away seemingly in the middle of nowhere and has well-maintained trails that meander through the woods. It’s one of our favorites!
