As most of you know, I lost my mother in late September. We are planning to take my Dad - age 85 and with a questionable hip - on some day hikes in the SNP this spring. I'd really like for him to get to see some wildlife and maybe a waterfall. While he is in remarkably good shape for 85, he does have a hip that is probably arthritic (he's as stubborn as she-dino and won't let the doc do a CT or MRI). The hip goes out on him sometimes so I don't want to be so far from a road that we couldn't get him out safely.
Any suggestions for good sections or areas welcomed.
