Taking the BRT downriver from Steel Creek
campground and Roark Bluff, you start climbing into the forest right
away. Even in the winter it is a pretty section of trail due
to the presence of large beech trees. In my opinion the trees
look even better in the winter with the stark foliage drawing your
attention to exactly how huge they are. In addition they keep
their leaves in winter, though they've turned brown, adding a bit of
color to the otherwise dreary winter forest scenery.
One beech tree in specific really
cracked me up. It was bound and determined to grow where it
started regardless of whatever stupid boulder tried to stay in its
way! Check
it out! |
