If you like stream crossings, this is a loop for you. We were amazed at the amount of work it must have taken to reestablish the Kate Sleeper Trail.Wish I had some of that wood here for the Winter!! The weather forecast was inaccurate this morning as we saw the sun very infrequently, even though they had promised clearing. Nevertheless we made good time doing this loop and got some foliage shots. |
