Unfortunately, this hike just wasn't for me. I only made it to just past Edfro Creek before turning around. A considerable amount of the trail feels narrow, overgrown, and stagnant. There are portions that feel incredibly maintained, so it was just inconsistent. The DNR portion of the trail was very overgrown for the 100 or so feet I walked.
The trail overall is just a little muddy in spots and the water crossings all were manageable. Lots of flies, too.
Human-wise: A Nissan Pathfinder was parked in front of the gate, hiding the foot path around the gate. Around the .8 mile mark, some guys were definitely shooting off of one of the spurs, and their off-leash dogs came up to me and my pup on the main trail. Friendly interaction but it never should've happened. The friendly duos I passed on my way out balanced it out.
