Eagle Scout Project This wonderful hiking trail is in Ferdinand State Forest, Indiana.  
There were not many people hiking here this day as it was a tad chilly.  We had a great walk and David hit some golf balls.  He hit 16 and picked 16 up.  Beautiful day.

Interestingly enough, immediately adjacent to this trail there is a random trash dumping ground complete with GE Refrigerator doors (along with the ice maker), a filing cabinet and some chicken wire.  I can understand the frustration with the refrigerator and ice maker.  

The Eagle Scouts (and the Blessinger family) have made enormous contributions to this park and countless others, clearing and marking trails for other to follow.  We enjoyed this one very much - thank you, Brian!
