Well it was a day for new trails out. We headed out early to hope to miss the rain and that is what we did mostly. We got all of the trails in the area with a few of the ledges area was hard to find as no tracks or blazes were to be seen a few times. Saw way more animal prints than we did people for sure. I can also tell where deer hill gets its name as deer prints were everywhere! We made it down to the spring and it was still open and bubbling which was neat to see for sure. It only started to lightly rain on us later on and we were out by 2 with the area complete! For sure will come back to see this area in good weather as the views looked like they would be nice! |
