Here in Northeast Georgia, there is Blood Mountain. Many speculations of murders in the levine but mostly car wrecks that have killed so so many people. A great place to investigate the dangers of this mountain

A great scary trail in Colorado is MT. Sherman. Not only is it one of our great 14er hikes, the abandoned mines are said to be haunted with the ghosts of miners who lost their lives working here. There are many abandoned buildings that you may enter if you dare, though probably scarier is the condition of the buildings than running into a spirit.

Last summer I hiked this with some of my friends (both female). It was the middle of the week and we were the only three people on the trail. As we passed one of the buildings (near 13500 feet) We distinctly heard a man's voice and what seemed to be a moan. We all thought that it was each other and at close to the same time all responded "What did you say?". We continued our hike not really speaking of this.

Once we returned to the car we pulled out our book on Colorado Fourteeners and read the description. Scary part of what they had to say was that many people hear the voices of miners who lost their lives here.

I am not one to usually let noises get to me as I hike and backpack so much that unusual noises tend to go with the territory, and generally you can eventually figure it out. But this definitely opened my eyes to the possibility of the supernatural.

MT. Sherman is located in the Tenmile-Mosquito mountain range and the Summit elevation is 14,036 feet. Happy Hikin's!

Really, you guys are leaving out the scariest trail and region of all; the Catskill Mountains, home of Sleepy Hollow and the Headless Horseman.

The scariest trail in the US has to be the Devils Path, were a hiker can trek through Devils Kitchen or camp out at the Devils Tombstone Campground.

Happy Halloween, Happy Trails,
