Hiking the Lower Haw River trail

We walked 8.6 miles along the Haw River.  To call it a trail in some spots was kind....it needs a good bit of work before the general public would want to wander it.  But we plugged along pushing thru weeds and made our way.

Beautiful scenery.




A beaver had been hard at work!!  I bet the next time we pass this way the tree will have yielded!



Some places the trail was well-cleared.  Very peaceful - the mossy trail muffled even our footsteps.




 We were on the trail about 4 hours - and didn't see a soul....with the exception of about 1000 of these millipedes....not my favorite creature!!

Looks like a fun hike...we had a huge hatching of JuneBugs after our brief rain yesterday...it was weird...

Love,
