    Hiking

    There is no bridge crossing the river, so, you have to wade. The depth is dependant on the water flow level/recent rainfall, but usually stays well below the knee.

    Our knees didn't stay dry - despite long legs. 😆

    Hiking

    Crossing the river on the Buckeye trail, going westward, the trail soon disappeared, and we found ourselves scrambling through bolder fields and undergrowth. We ended up having to scramble up a steep slope to get back on the trail. At the next two water crossings, the trail disappeared again, and we spent an age walking in the river itself trying to get back on the trail. There were no sign posts marking the trail in this area. Navigating the trails around the meandering river more than doubled the expected duration of the hike. What an adventure!
