Another "happy hour" hike! In Clemson there is a neighborhood park with a boat landing and a 1-mile nature trail. The only reason I can think of that this is called "Mountain View" Park is that it is at the end of Mountain View Lane. I still haven't seen the mountain, even in the winter with all the leaves off the trees. Anyway, the park is only 5 minutes from our house, and practically on my way home from work. It is a pretty nice loop trail, with views of Lake Hartwell almost the entire way. It just isn't very long, so I made 3 laps. The path is fairly flat (more than walking in our neighborhood)...I think it would be a good place to do trail running.
