Florida Trail Map
(Click image for full size)
It's hard getting used to this time change since I crossed into central
time Zone. Now it gets light at 6 am and dark at 6pm. Instead of 7 and 7.
A sign along the way said this was the highest point on the Florida
Trail but it did not give the elevation. I had planned to stay at Alqua
camp but I was the by 3... that's 2: central. So I did Anothet 7 miles.
It sure is nice to have clean looking water from creeks that are not
full of tannin.
I was a little worried that I would have to turn back at the Blount
and or Alquara creeks since it rained so much yesterday. Luckily thet were
log bridges across them. The signs warned that the Big log bridge was
condemned and not to user it. But it seemed fine to me. It was a great
section and I am glad that I did not do the road walk Bypass instead.
Calling for 25* tonight
