 | Comments: |
Neat little trail system with several points of historical interest noted with signage and on their trail map. All intersections are very well signed, however some areas of trail difficult to follow where they meander through open woods. Sawyer Mountain Road had the most mud and is heavily eroded. Quite a few blowdowns across the SMR but most were easily negotiated. The Nature Trail is heavily littered with twigs, branches, and trees and was difficult walking and navigating. |
