Plateau Chapter, Deb led us on the Burnt Mill Bridge Loop in the Big South Fork. My first time on this trail. The recent flood here took out part of the old bridge, and had washed the trail clean. It wasn't too hot today, the company was great, and it's a pretty trail. Lots of wildflowers grow here, will have to check it out in springtime. After lunch we drove to Zenith River Access where Bill Harris told a little of the history of this old mining community. Down the roadbed to the older sign for the river access, the sign had been chewed on and scraped by a big ol bear. We saw huge footprints in the sand. Also found some pretty wildflowers growing here. Leather Vasevine and Thimbleweed.
And Ice Cream after the hike!
