On Oct 16th the Grayson County High School ECO club hiked on the AT at Grayson Highlands State Park with the Mt. Rogers Trail Club.  In the past, the club has helped with trail maintenance, but this time the hike was for Fun!  The students sang and played word games along the way as we hiked at Massey Gap north on the AT to Wilson Creek. The weather was cold and windy on the way up but once we got in the woods, it was pleasant hiking weather. Carol Broderson with the Mt. Rogers Trail club prepared an activity for the students which involved finding what type of trash took the longest to decompose. The students thought hard during this activity and learned a lot about how long certain pieces of trash stay in our environment.
