Thanks. I will. Yes I am also glad that we have two trails fairly close to our area. I really enjoy the BCT and have spent alot of time out there teaching myself about hammock camping, testing out...
Not lately. It's probably been March since I've been out there. I been hiking off and on in Alabama and last week I went and did a section on the AT. In a few weeks I have another section on the AT...
I was in the melvin breland rd area last weekend and could tell that workers had been out there. The grass was cut on that pipeline section. They must have used swingblades to do that. Thanks for the...
To the baptist church group from Alabama that visited the Black Creek Wilderness area this past Saturday, i think that it's great that you are bringing those young kids out to teach them about...
Great to hear that they have started clearing the trails. I'll have to make it out there soon. It's been several weeks since i've been to black creek so i don't know if they have started up there...
[QUOTE=Tuxhiker;1999203]Mab,
Thanks for the update! Not surprised about the overgrown conditions. Hopefully they'll clear it soon. They usually clear it in the fall. Hope ticks weren't bad. The...
Tux, i went out to Fairley bridge landing today. As far as trail conditions go, there is no trail. It needs cutting bad. I went ahead and hiked it anyway. Good thing I wore long pants. From the...
Has anyone been out to the black creek trail recently. I haven't been up there in around four weeks.
With all of the rain that we have been having, I would imagine that it's deeper than that right now. They also need a permanent bridge over Mill Creek in the wilderness area.
i went for a hike yesterday and i parked at the ccc. You were right it was a very nice place to park and this is a very nice park of the trail. I found several places to park farther east that i will...
i saw that on the map but wasn't sure if i could park there. I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
Nah! I don't think that i'll try that. If i can't find a place to park so that i can hike that section i'll have to do an over nighter.
Does anybody know if there is a parking spot east of hwy. 49? I've sectioned hiked the whole trail except the area east of hwy. 49 to around south of where moody's landing is at on the map. Am i...
Desoto National Forest near Wiggins is a nice area. I was there this past weekend. I parked at Farley Bride landing and went up to Janice Landing. I think it's around 14 miles one way. They just went...
I did an overnight trip last weekend. I followed the same route as my last trip. I parked at Andrew Jackson, crossed hwy. 29 and hiked about 5 miles in. I found a nice spot by the creek and set up...
Yesterday, I went out for a day hike in the wilderness area. It was my first time out there and wasn't sure what to expect after reading some info about the Desoto trails being over grown.
I...
