The first trip down to the Blue Spring Trail in October was via the near-vertical climb near Gold Hill from the west side. The river was flooding and the roiling muddy waters totally obscured the blue-green flow from the spring. We were not able to reach the source due the amount of water and mud, though it was a short distance. After reviewing Harvey's notes, we tried the so-called 'Horse Trail' from the east which proved to be significantly easier and gave us a nicer hike overall. | |
