Craig and I explored the new segment of the Cumberland Trail being built between Stinging Fork SNA and the Head of the Sequatchie. Didn't know we would have a creek crossing, we didn't take crocs so we took off our boots and socks and waded across. Not as painful as January crossings, but Craig went slow enough in front of me to make it pretty refreshing. Lunch was by a pretty little stream.
We hiked until we found the End of Trail sign, then followed the flagging thru the woods for a little while until the holes hidden under the pine needles and the greenbriar got the best of us. I had heard the trail was 10 miles long and 7 of it had been built. The 3 miles needing to be built must be in the middle, where we were.
We will have to explore from the other end.
