Rock Climbing at Hurricane Creek Park in Vinemont

Hurricane Creek at Hurricane Creek Park, Vinemont, Alabama
In addition to the lovely hiking that is available at Hurricane Creek Park and the William "Buddy" Rodgers Natural Area, in yesterday's post, I mentioned that there are rock climbing and bouldering opportunities at Hurricane Creek Park. These climbing spots include a climbing wall facility at the park entrance as well as numerous large boulders and rock faces along the trails.

Toward the end of our visit the other day, Blake and Tyler decided to tackle one of the rock faces, while I manned the camera and Darby.

Hurricane Creek at the William "Buddy" Rodgers Natural Area and Hurricane Creek Park

The William "Buddy" Rodgers Natural Area and Hurricane Creek Park are found in Vinemont, Alabama. Hiking and mountain biking are available on maintained trails, and plenty of opportunities of bouldering and climbing are also present. While hikers are encouraged to stay on trails, sometimes trailblazers are needed so that lovely photographs (like the one below) can be taken, when they otherwise would not be.
