"On my way home from Woodall Mtn. in Mississippi and had the time to wander up Driskill again. I'll probably return in a month to finish some trail maintenance and install another sign." — StoneMan • Mar 29, 2024

"This trip to Driskill Mtn. was to begin replacing missing and vandalized signs and also clearing some brush around existing trail signs. It'll take another trip to finish this little maintenance project." — StoneMan • Nov 4, 2023

"Decided a hike would be better than sitting on the couch even though the heatwave we've been having in Texas and Louisiana has kept the temps well above 100 degrees for quite awhile now. The drive from the ranch in Texas is longer than the hike up Driskill Mtn. in Louisiana but it's the closest state highpoint around. It was 104 degrees at the summit but still a nice hike in the woods on the main trail. It also gave me a chance to check on the logbook and a few missing and defaced signs that we'll be replacing in about a month. This was my 29th trip up, and I'm sure there'll be a few more before the end of the year. It's also the 503rd time I've stood on the state highpoints." — StoneMan • Aug 26, 2023

"Easy drive from East Texas to an easy hike of Driskill Mtn. in Louisiana. It was 93 degrees at the trailhead when I started and 99 degrees when I returned; still it was cooler than the ranch in East Texas. Met a local heading up while I was working my way down the False Mtn. Trailhead. He was a retired forester and had worked on the other side of the mountain and said he hadn't been to the summit in almost twenty years. We had a good conversation about the terrain, trees and wildlife in the area." — StoneMan • Jul 1, 2023

"Figured it would be a good day for a short hike up Driskill to check on the logbook. Distant thunder and dark skies probably kept other hikers away. I usually see others on the trail on Saturdays in the early afternoon but the rain came heavily once I got back to the trailhead and headed home. Perfect timing for a hike." — StoneMan • Jun 3, 2023
