North Fork Big Creek
Miles: 8.8
Fantastic trail tread and grade most of the way from Yamacraw Bridge along Cumberland River. Missed Yahoo Falls, KY's highest, during downpours, have to save it for next time. Reached Wood Trail Shelter and short dry break, then northward over Big Creek to confusing junction with forest service roads and spent the better part (or worst) of an hour scanning the different directions for the true trail. Eventually hunter with dogs said "you're almost on it" and there was the overgrown trail going up. Raining now, harder, tent has a few tears but no water inside. Soggy day. |
