Today is my husband and my 22nd wedding anniversary. Chuck took a half day off work and we decided to go hiking. Something we both enjoy doing. The weather cooperated and we had a nice hike. Today, we went to an area we have frequently heard about but have never hiked, Indian Fort Theater in Berea, Kentucky. The area is managed by Berea College and maintains about 8 nukes of hiking trails in the Pinnacle Area. The Forest helps protect the water source for the city of Berea.
We really enjoyed the hike. It was well worth the effort when we reached the East Pinnacle overlook. We passed a few other hikers along the way and they were friendly and helpful. We did not know whether to go to the East or West Pinnacle. Two people along the trail said they recommended the East Pinnacle as it had, in their opinion, the prettiest overlook. We had to agree with the pretty part. The pictures I have included don't give it justice.

If you are ever in the Berea area, home of Appalachia folk crafts, take some time out for an afternoon hike to the pinnacles. You will find it well worth your time.
