Hello,
At the very beginning of the Middle Prong Trail, after crossing the walk bridge, there is a trail that goes off to the right. It is unmarked and unmaintained. The beginning of the trail follows the creek but soon crosses the creek multiple times and starts to follow an old railroad bed. I hiked about the first 1.5 miles of this trail last week. The reason for our turning back was the high water and difficult creek crossings.
I assume this trail eventually goes all the way to the AT. Can anyone give me any information on this trail such as milage to the AT and also what I might see along the way. I am hoping to try again when the water receeds.
Thanks
