While the trails up in Huntington are a little more challenging, they aren’t that hard either. But they are still legal trails to run when trail time is needed. It’s why I only show people who I know I can trust, and don’t show many people. The issue is the town will notice very quickly even the slightest increase in traffic. The normal entrance in Russell was gated a few years ago due to people speeding up and down the road to the trail head and destruction the property around the Army Corps Of Engineers Damn. Asshats were posting videos of themselves tearing up the soft ground around the damn.
If we start bring more and more people up there and it gets shut down, we need to accept the fact that we are directly responsible for the loss of access.
Might be time for me to gather all the materials and do a Tread Lightly class one weekend before summer kicks into full haul.
Oh, Nick, MA Bell is ok, but The Summit is great. It’s very challenging and I’m looking forward to that run.
I'm looking forward to it as well. Seems to be a good spot for me to gain more experience from the other members.
