It was a long, nearly 16 mile hike this time that took me 7 hours. There weren't any huge changes in elevation along the entire hike so it was fairly simple. In order to make things interesting I scrambled up 2 different rock faces, climbed up a slippery section of stream, climbed to the top of a fallen tree, and clambered around the pot rocks section, all of which was really fun. I was along the water pretty much the whole time and there where plenty of Geese, Great Blue Herons, and other water fowl. Blazes were marked consistently, I figured I'd give Alltrails a go and surprisingly it was super convenient. I think I'm gonna use it from now on. The trail was closed at I-95 and I'm thankful because I would have gone further and the return trip would have been more grueling. I like to travel light with the items that I bring. It's usually a bag of trail mix, map, phone, ID, car key, and hiking stick that's it no water, I drink before I walk so I'm not carrying a heavy water bottle. Overall, the scenery was nice and it was a cool and cloudy spring day, honestly, couldn't ask for nicer weather.
