After seeing how dry Black Hill was I decided it should be good to do the Hoyles Mill connector. While the trail had more damp spots then the Black Hill trails, it seemed to have dried out fairly well from the inches of rain we had 3 days ago. There were just one or two spots that were what I'd call muddy.
My joyous ride was cut short by the raging RIVER! It was like 25 feet across, and the shallowest path was a good 2-3 feet deep, with a fast current! I should have figured this when I saw how high the lake was. It was very cold water too. I think I am not going to be able to due this tail any more in the winter because of this horific river crossing. I hope there is a plan to biuld a bridge or at least put some stepping stones in or something to make it crossible in the winter.
TRASH. There were 3 or 4 orange volunteer trash bags filled in Black Hills right before the road bridge section. They have been there for a couple months. I guess I should report that to whom?
