Comments
Comments: On my way up to the Hut, I saw a crew working on a new trail section not far from the main trail. I couldn't figure out why until I noticed some excavation near the Falling Waters trail. Then it dawned on me that they were building a bypass (starting at Old Bridal Path and proceeding over to Falling Waters) around some of the more difficult, accident-prone sections of Falling Waters. Gonna be a nice addition...thanks to whoever came up with that plan!
