K2 joined me for a ride to DAR State Forest, where we would actually not run in DAR.  We would run along Ashfield Trails, from West Road along the northeastern edge of DAR, to Chapel Ledge, Chapel Falls, and then the Two Bridges Trail to Bullitt Reservation, and back.

It was misting and cool when we began, and throughout the run in the woods I did not notice the mist at all, but once back at the car it remained.  No sun today, so we kept cool.

The view from the ledge was fogged in, but still uplifting.  The series of waterfalls were heavy with flow, crashing down the rocks.  Excellent run with a total of 9.3-miles for the out-and-back.

This is the 1st leg of a planned marathon route from Bullitt Reservation off Route 116 in Ashfield to the Williamsburg Snack Bar in Williamsburg, along Route 9.  I had measured along the map at 5.6-miles, but today I landed on 4.8-miles.  Some twist and turns, so the higher mileage may be more correct.
