Today our guest hikers were Gillian and Bob as Wendy was creating beautiful butterflies at the CMA chalk-fest this weekend! We had to re-hike the beginning of this trail from Ottowa Point that we had previously traveled in the dead of winter, and headed south (breaking one of Wendy’s rules), but it was well worth it because the day was beautiful and now we had leaves and flowers around us! Was a nice mix of up and down hills, dry woods and soggy mud, but really a nice stretch of the BT in CVNP. Highly recommend Ottowa point to Blue Hen Falls if you can make it. Ran across the trail-side dump at beginning of hike again (1941 concrete pier still there) and very few fellow hikers except at end near Jaite. Lots of good picture opportunities- a GREAT day for fungi! Seemed longer than I expected, but got no complaints from Gillian and Bob- only good conversation! Hope they can join us again!
My favorite part so far is the change of seasons. And the photos. Like wisteria in tree! From your new fan….
AGREE- its hard to believe we started in the snow…seems so long ago!
Very cool photos throughout!
Looking forward to the ones from the Burr Oak trip.
