@ Desoto: Morning run before checkout from the cabin. 5 on trails then 5 on the roads. Part of it was on the RAA route going down the mtn from Mentone to Ft Payne. The hill milage was all steep switchback downhill. Pace variation from 17/mile to 5:15/mile. After checkout we went to see Desoto Falls and had a great gourmet picnic lunch. We will definatly go back with the kids.
