Let's Walk From Glade Spring to Saltville

Yesterday, Becky and I hiked the Salt Trail.  Because this is a "rail to trail" path, it is very flat.  We decided to attempt hiking the entire trail and return--a total of 16 miles.  Although we looked for mile-markers, we found none.  This left us guessing at our mileage.  Three hours and twenty minutes later, we were back at my vehicle.  Based on various pieces of input, I think we hiked 15 miles while carrying about 30 pounds each.




While there wasn't too much of notable interest, I did enjoy the rock pictured above.  There was also a wooden foot-bridge and a few sections of fencing re-purposed from railroad ties.
