Since it was warmer out today, I decided to explore one of the higher elevation maps. Higher elevation being an oxygen-depriving 500-600m ;) But the vegetation does in fact change significantly as you climb in this area.
My first parking location went well, but when I got to the creek I realized that I had forgotten about all the overnight rain. What looked like a tranquil creek previously was not very crossable. I wasn't in the mood to risk crossing a creek with rapids that intense. So I went back to the car and actually found a better parking spot.
Pretty similar to Hickory Run again: dense beech forest, although much more pleasant than Hickory Run in most parts. Ground was quite soft for this area, although I'm sure that part of this is due to the overnight rain.
Control Count: 236
