Hey guys just day hike most of the new section of the Haw River trail/ MTS I'm Alamance county. I'll share some pics below. The River was up 5 feet due to a lot of rain over the past week so unfortunately our trip was cut short before we could finish the newly completed section.

Some history. The Haw River powered the Textile machine I'm Alamance county that for a long time was unmatched around the world. Like many other things jobs went overseas and most of the mills went with them. What is left are skeletons of old mills either still standing or stone walls only found by those who travel the woods. The beautiful Haw River however remains where it's always been, even over the years of excessive pollution the River is slowly changing into a wonderful ecological success story.

End of the line Boyd's creek too high to cross.
