Woodland Trail

 


Yesterday's walk was another one in the Mt Airy Trail Network, the Woodland Trail. It is a pleasant 1.1 mile "lollipop" trail (out and back with a loop at the end) that starts just across the road from the casino/resort. The trail runs along the Forest Hills Run, but upon starting the loop section it traverses some mixed logging areas. Reading "reviews" of the trail, I am uncertain whether this was commercial logging or cutting out severe Emerald Ash Borer damage. Some locals writing comments have now referred to it as "Wasteland Trail," due to the logging. None of it was true clear cut, but the stumps suggest that some rather large trees were cut. 

At any rate, it was good to get out for a walk before today's deluge started. We have had a lot of activity with workers coming in to work on our bathroom, so we haven't kept up with our exercise program, but we are both enjoying the walks once we get out there.
