I've had this hike on my list for quite a while, but the log crossing over the Taylor River always gave me pause. Today, I decided it was finally time to give it a shot, hoping that late in the season, I might be able to rock hop or even ford the river barefoot if needed. I also figured that with the three-day weekend, many people would be venturing farther afield, leaving the Taylor River Trail a bit quieter.
When I arrived at the trailhead around 9:30 AM, I was pleasantly surprised to find the parking lot less than half full. This was a promising start as I always value solitude on the trail.
And then, success! At the river crossing, there are currently three logs to choose from, but if logs aren't your jam—rock hopping is entirely possible. No need to worry about getting wet this time of year!
