Big Laurel Creek

On Sunday, December 14, RiverLink's
Dave Russell will lead a hiking trip along Big Laurel Creek in Madison
County. The hike will be one hour in, a half-hour for lunch and chit-chat, then
back to the trailhead. It will be an easy hike, with no serious climbs, though
there are some rocky spots in the trail. Sturdy shoes are highly recommended.

This is a very nice hike along the
Big Laurel, beginning at the intersection of Hwy 25/70 and Hwy 208 between
Marshall and Hot Springs.
