Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes: Room for about 10 at end of road. Magalloway Rd is in OK to good shape depending on where you are on it. Mile 1 from RT 3 has a number of rough spots and potholes. Miles 2-5 are in good shape with occasional spot. From Magalloway rd to the tower is the "roughest", but that being said any car with a bit of caution (or no regards for your vehicle) can easily get in. One log down, but it is passable.

Comments
Comments: This was the end hike for 52WAV. Clouds and rain came in so it got done but without the views. I believe they would be excellent so will have to get back there. Coot Trail is steep the whole way but short. Footing was slick. Bobcat is a nicer trail but needs brushing badly and is muddy near bottom. Another list done!
