| Comments: |
Last year there was a wooden stool that could be used to hoist yourself up on the broken bridge on the Rocky Branch Trail; it has devolved into kindling and has been replaced by 2 slightly unstable rocks. It's still possible to launch yourself up, but eventually it might be safer to rock-hop or ford the river (if the water level is low enough). |
