It was slow going because of so many downfalls. The recent storms have really done a number on one particular area near the Josiah Trail. Fresh trees snapped off and twisted. I think the tornado from Thursday night before did that because it went right over the Mn and towards the lake exactly in that area! This area really need maintenance. | It was slow going because of so many downfalls. The recent storms have really done a number on one particular area near the Josiah Trail.

So we debated to just hike down Flint Mill and have our shuttle person pick us up there. I have Verison and a signal almost all the way so that made it possible to go out another way! | ||

The rains have washed a lot of that access trail out and pushed over more trees so it took us a long time to get to the bottom. It's a hard trail anyway because it is rocky, craggy and very steep, but it was grueling that day. We were hot tired and out of water by the time we reached the bottom. There is water at the top there on Flint Mill Trail but we didn't take the time because we knew there was water at the bottom on Flatwoods trail. |
