Description

Part of the Watershed Trails network in Hampton TN. The trail starts with a steep mile or so climb, with several tight switchbacks. The descent is experts only - fun but very steep and very intense. The trail winds its way up a seriously steep, 1 mile-ish climb before dropping into a crazy double black diamond descent. There are no unavoidable drops, but there are extremely steep, tight sections and obstacles that sneak up on you due to the dense foliage. If you're not up for that you can descend back the way you came. The Cat's Pajamas exits back into the River Loop.
