| Hike Summary: | I spent a couple of days hiking this tract with hiking buddy Chuck. A well maintained trail with diversified ecosystems made for a fun Florida backpacking adventure. The southernmost part of our trip was a bit wet with several moderate to slightly difficult water crossings. This of course varies with the season. Lenny |
