This is a rather long email, however very important that you read before the Len Foote Hike-Inn trip.   Please reply to me which option you are choosing below!!! We don’t want anyone left behind. 

We have 4 options for getting to the Hike-Inn.  

1. Option 1 is to meet us for breakfast at Oakwood Cafe,@ 8:45am (local mom & pop resturant that has been in Dalton, Ga for 500 years, well maybe 100 years, OK! for real over 50 years), 201 W. Cuyler St. Dalton, Ga 30720. After breakfast we will caravan (not carpool) to Hike Inn.  If you want to carpool make those arragements before you get to resturant. 
2. Option 2 is for those of you who don't want to eat, but will join the breakfast group at Oakwook Cafe to caravan to Amicalola Falls, leaving Oakwood at 9:30 am.  
3. Option 3 is to meet us at the Visitors Center @ Amicalola Falls State Park, 280 Amicalola Falls tate Park Road, Dawsonville, Ga 30534 @ 11:00 am  to sign-in, drive up the hill, park, and hike together.  
4. Option 4 is to go on your own, and we'll see you at the Hike-Inn.  

Remember, everyone MUST ALL REGISTER BEFORE GETTING ON THE TRAIL (at the Visitors Center @ Amicalola Falls just inside the main gate (before driving up the hill to where we park and the trail starts).  

This is very important….****** NOTE**** When you arrive at the park gate, DO NOT PAY  to come into the park, be sure and tell the Park Ranger that you are spending the night at Len Foote Hike-Inn. You will pay your parking fee when you register at the Visitor Center. 

 *****Please let me know which of the above 4 options you are doing.  We don't want to leave anyone behind.   barbwire@flash.net  or  text me  423-902-6095

Hello CSC Happy Hikers,

Len Foote Hike

Friday October 18, 2024

Len Foote Hike is never canceled due to rain.  The Hike Inn cancelation policy has changed.  I have 11 rooms held for Friday Oct. 18th, 2024.  The Hike Inn is under new management and things have changed so please read the following:

Those of you going MUST call and book your room 706-344-1547 ask for Kim.  You MUST tell them you are with Chattanooga SKI Club to get one of the rooms I have on hold.  If you need to cancel your room you MUST call at least 7 days before your arrival date Oct. 18th, 2024, for a refund minus $10 cancellation fee.  There is NO REFUND if you cancel 6 days before the arrival date.

This is also new for 2024... the 11 rooms that I have on hold are in my name.  I must cancel any rooms not taken by September 16th, 2024, 

( there are NO  rooms available)

or they will bill rooms that have not been booked to me.... YAP!!! I will not let that happen.  I have released the rooms that were not booked at Len Foote Hike Inn that were held for CSC.  If signed up on the CSC website (this site) and did NOT call Len Foote to book your room, then you DO NOT have a room.   You can call Len Foote and request to put on a waiting list for a room the same time as our trip.  

Also you must also register on the CSC Event Website and sign the waiver.
