Hickory Creek and Conasauga River Trails share the same tread- way from the sharp left turn to where the fords start again at Little Rough Creek. The combined trail makes a flattened half loop away from, then back to, the river. The formerly farmed field now sup-ports an impressive stand of second-growth trees—hemlock, sweet-gum, white pine, and tall, straight yellow poplar. Christmas fern (also known as evergreen) is common beside the old wagon track. Before  curling  back  to  the  river,  the  route  passes  beside  an  old, grassed-in beaver pond, still holding open water near the dam.
