Clear Creek Campground
Miles: 18.4
Commenced with road walk to KY 77 and very closed general store. Lots of dirt road walking then reached Furnace Arch and some views. Felt like we would never reach Clear Creek Campground especially with twilight descent of long switchbacks but alas picnic bench, spiget water, signage, and an old coal furnace, I believe. Happy and tired by dark and fell into sleep although a cold night by the creek without padding. Low on food and a bit alarmed although could be much worse. Rationing what I have and looking forward to the bounty again. Have considered nettles and Indian cucumber but will wait until really hungry. A violet salad. Tulip Tree flowers and oats. Hmm. |
