Notes of Interest

• No trail pass required.
• There is a sign noting “last bathroom facilities” before reaching the trailhead, so stop if needed.  Otherwise, there are lots of easily accessible hiding places for potty breaks.
• There are no garbage cans, so take it out with you.
• Go early if possible.  We got to the trail head around 8:30 am and others started showing up just as we were leaving.  By 12:30 pm, there were quite a few people on the trail.
• The main trail was in good condition.  There were some down tree limbs, but only two that had to be stooped under.  Mud wasn’t much of an issue.  There is one steep incline, but it’s very manageable.
• Getting to the base of Feature Show Falls is a bit treacherous.
• There are camping spots along the trail.  The first one I saw was at the stop of the steep incline.
