Richard Goodwin Trail, Southern Terminus to Grassy Hill Road
Doing some research before the scouts hit this trail later in the year. Lots of Mountain Laurel which should be blooming in a couple of weeks. Appears there are a couple of blueberry bushes along the way here and there. Lots of flat trail and no climb was more than 100 feet in any one spot, most less than 25 feet. |
