Smith's Run Trail

Trail Overview

Another fun adventure off Jew's Run Road, this is a beautiful out-and-back drive through dense forest vegetation. You'll cross a mountain stream (not a ford), pass some beautiful cabins, and encounter deep ruts and possibly some very sloppy mud. This trail does not have any real obstacles other than muddy ruts. Bring a saw, as you will very likely encounter tree branches across the trail.

Difficulty

Large deep ruts can be very muddy and difficult to navigate. Strong possibility of downed trees or branches across the trail.

History

Towards the end, where the trail makes a 90-degree turn (this is the recommended turn around if the hunt camp at the end is occupied), you can see on the map that the trail once continued all the way down to the river. It is unknown how long ago this changed, but there are no visible signs of the abandoned trail continuation.
