Sipsey Camping Trip Last Weekend

Hello,
I am new to the group and wanted to thank everyone for the posts! A group of us spent the weekend at the Borden Bridge Trailhead. Once the rain cleared on Friday, the rest of the weekend was fantastic!! We spent three nights and many of the guys had never been to Bankhead Forest before. We took them down trail 200, and over 209 to Falls Creek Falls, which was flowing nicely from the previous days rain. From the Falls we bushwacked N-NE and popped out on the west side on the Borden and followed the trail back to camp. The bushwacking was harder than anticipated, but was great fun for all.

Welcome to our group
Falls creek falls is one of my favorites. I really think the area above the falls is one of the nicest camping spots in Bankhead
