High Falls via Hurricane Creek and Waterfall Loop GPX Track

I need to offset my substantial website costs somehow! You can download a hike/drive GPX to assist you here. Before sharing my GPX tracks with others, please remember my site is otherwise a free resource.

This is a nice loop through a local Birmingham, Alabama park called Moss Rock Preserve. There are some really nice points of interest, despite being basically within the city. It's also a surprisingly large amount of open space. We headed along the White Trail, passing Tunnel Falls as we progressed through the woods. We then followed the Orange Trail to High Falls, a nice spot that served as our turn-around point. We took the Blue Trail back, passing more little waterfalls and cool rock features.
