Comments
Comments: Beautiful Day!!! Got to the trail head before 7:00 a.m. and starting hiking at 7:15 a.m. It was 26 degrees when I started and only warmed up to 36 degrees when I finished. I was totally overcome by this hike in that the whole hike was like I was never there before. The Leaves had heavily blanketed all of the trails and it was a totally different perspective. Rocks were slippery. Wore gloves and fleece headband all day.


REMEMBER: Hunting Season starts next week and even though there is No Hunting in George Parker the borders of Private Property is so close (50 to 100 feet) in some places that you should wear Orange if you plan on hiking the Foster Tract (Milton Gowdy Trail).
