Distance: 8.6
Today was cloudy as a front was moving out. The weather indicated that the rain would be gone by 11:00, so I headed over to the Little Greenbrier trail about 11:00. The trailhead is on the road which goes from Wears Valley into the park at Metcalf Bottoms.
About the time I entered the park, it started drizzling and it continued to drizzle until just before I returned to the car, so I wore a poncho for the entire hike.
I had previously hiked the first 1.9 miles on another hike back in August. On this hike, I did the entire trail (4.3 mi). It was a nice walk in the woods, but it was more of a climb than I was expecting (~1800ft).
I turned around at the Laurel Falls Trail. If it hadn't been raining and if I had started earlier, I would have gone down to the falls, but the additional 1.8 miles weren't too tempting in the drizzle.
Total hike time was 3:15.
