    It's always amazed me how those pipes grow out of the ground. Nature is amazing.

    This is why I don't remove every tree that falls across the trail. Helps keep the cyclists at bay.

    I'm not a big fan of the bladder because I never know how much I have left. That dry sucking sound isn't good when you still have a ways to go and no water on the way. At least with my dual Gatorade...

    This is pretty much a given. Camping and Florida summers are usually mutually exclusive.

    It's going to be hard to find those distances that don't involve road walking. Unlike the AT, the Florida Trail crosses a mixture of State, Federal, private, and FTA land.

    It's been a while since we've been doing any maintenance but we've had to brave the heat a couple of times this summer. :eek:

    Guana does have some nice trails and we do group hikes out there. I also like Little Talbot.

    For chiggers/ticks, it's hard to beat treating your clothing and footwear with permethrin.

    I'm pretty sure I can answer most questions concerning the trail between White Springs along the Suwannee and Gold Head Branch State Park near Keystone Hikes.

    We have people from all over the country come to Florida to thru-hike. We just had a group start over Christmas/New Year's in fact.

    I believe it's a two-fold issue. First, the Airpark received a FAA grant and following that the hammer fell. The FNST isn't the only victim. There are other (for profit) groups that use the Airpark...
