Hiked the Lake Whelchel Loop. This is in Gaffney, SC. I had never hiked it in the winter before and it was nice because you could see more of the lake. They had some damage from Helene but it was all cleared off the trail. They were working on another loop trail while we were there that they said was 2.5 Miles. Not sure if elevation but the area is pretty flat. The loop we did was 8 M and 350 EG.

Asbury Hills
Did a hike at Asbury Hills camp. I had never been here before. On one of the trails we had to go around a lot of blowdowns so there was some bushwhacking involved. The main trials were pretty clear but this one was not a marked trail. You have to call ahead and get a code to get into the gate at the camp. There is plenty of parking and bathrooms in the dinning hall. We did about 5.6 M with 851 EG.

Cumberland Gap - Pinnacle Overlook
This isn't a hike but just an overlook you drive to and walk about 600ft to the view. According to the kiosk you can see the Tru-State Peak (Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee) but there is not a marker or anything.
