Hit the trail for a short morning jaunt. Left Fairley Bridge Rd at 6:30 am with the temp at 34 degrees as daylight came. Saw the sun rise on the trail. Went out about 4 or 5 miles by 8:30, turned and walked back and was at my truck by 10. Stopped walking only briefly a few times. Had a snack on the big sand bar on Black Creek. The trail was in the best shape I've seen it in the 4 or 5 years I've been going here. Truly a beautiful day walking in the Steep Red Hill section. A+++ trek all around!!!
