Crooksville Reservoir

I'm not sure exactly how this happened, as it's illegal to landlock a property that's already had a right of way granted, and also illegal to raise livestock on government property. I'll find out what the local government has to say about it, and write back. Josh... |
Wild Cat Hollow Hiking Trail
 | 15 miles away This trail was in a sad state. The lower loop was not bad but the upper loop was sooo damaged by falled trees. It was sad to behold. I began to dread seeing a pine plantation in the distance because I knew I would be scrabling off the path. This was my first time on the trail and I feel bad because I bet she was beautiful before all the damage....I like to start early and eat up up the whole trail in a day. It is a great two day trail, but is a good hard day used as a day trial. It is easy to follow and well thought out.... |
