Back to North Hollow, this time to run north up Ore Hill Trail / Road, and return through Granville State Forest' Hubbard River Trail.

Ore Hill, at this time of year, is discouraging.  Totally rutted and mud filled, mostly by massive logging operations it appears.  My route followed a prior gps track of mine from a few years ago, but the path is much wider now, and navigation through the mud isn't fun.  I would say that in mid-summer, during a dry spell of weather, would realistically be the only time worthwhile on this.

The Hubbard River Trail is always worthy, on the positive side.  Several falls and cascades, beautiful trail, and the sound of the river.

Knocked out 6.8-miles after physical therapy.  Cold and damp, around 40-degrees and drizzling.
