John Muir Trail - section 1
The Bigbee Bottom trail is a 3.8 mile loop trail that takes you into a hardwood forest near the banks of the Black Warrior and Tombigbee Rivers.  The trail ranges from easy to moderate and has 2 wildlife food plots for wildlife viewing.    The Lower Pool Trail is a 1.6 mile loop trail that also runs through the hardwood forest and gives great views of the lower pool falls.  The trail is easy and also has a wildlife food plot for wildlife viewing.  Plans are in the works to create a bridge over the gorge to connect the Bigbee Bottom with the Lower Pool trail.  Once this happens, the trail will  be a combined length of 5.4 miles.  Please see link below for more information including maps and photos.

Badger Pass
13 miles away
Badger Pass is the perfect place to learn to ski or snowboard. It has a really long bunny slope, and all the other trails are pretty easy too. The problem is that once you know how to ski without a V-shape thingy the place has little to offer. The staff is very friendly though....

Givens Lake
14 miles away
There are no fish here. We got there, after a tough hike, and we never spotted a single trout....

Gallison Lake

Spotted Lakes
18 miles away
My family and I horse packed into Spotted lakes years ago. Can you still go in by horse? If so can someone give me a name of a company that does that. Thanks...You can't see Gale Peak from Spotted Lakes, Red Top and Sing Peak dominate the views and you must cross-country over to Chain Lakes if you want to see Gale Peak. All peaks are great day hikes that provide fantastic view of the Ansel Adams Wilderness as well as the east side of the Ritter Range. The trail to Spotted Lakes is faint and difficult to find and also difficult to stay on even if found ... that's what makes it a great place to go, few people can find it and it has a unique beauty being an atypical lake, i.e. not round or oblong but actually a series of canals connected by wider ''lake'' sections. Great rocks for diving and sunning yourself, rock climbing too....
