    Great trail that runs along the creek, and zig zags back and forth across the creek.

    Sipsy Loop Trail
    Started at Gum Pond trail and hiked to trail 210. It was a ridge trail with not much that was visually captivating but you are fully alone which is nice. I marked the only campsite I found on 210. I then went to Horse trail 223 and 224. When I reached the beginning of 207, it was the first time I had water to filter since the beginning. Trail 207 was a beautiful trail along the river and was my favorite part of the entire hike. There are plenty of camp sites first mile or two of 207.

    White falls
    Beautiful White falls and walk along the creek. Some steep climbs both up and down. Expecting 6 miles and ended up walking almost 9. Not bad for an ole lady 3 1/2 months post back fusion, but I was sure proud to see those trucks in the parking area. Opine was especially good and seemed to have a great time. He did his job and watched after everyone.
