My son and I hike weekly and the Uwharrie is one of our favorite places.. definitely has a sad vibe compared to other forests we’ve explored. So grateful to have beautiful places to explore!

]]> Comment on Breakaway Trail and Prison Run Pass at County Farm Preserve by wolfgang planz https://www.piedmonttrails.org/?p=3543/#comment-435 Sat, 13 Feb 2021 03:20:49 +0000 https://www.piedmonttrails.org/maps-routes/breakaway-trail-and-prison-run-pass-at-county-farm-preserve/#comment-435 I hiked this trail today { 2.12.2021 } and saw a River Otter at the pond at the Amick Rd trailhead . The weather was very bad and since there were no people out , he was unaware that he was being watched . Can somebody confirm that River Otters are not unusual to be present there ? I am positive it wasnt a Beaver since he was much slimmer and didnt have the typical broad Beaver tail plus , Beavers have a huge impact on the surrounding trees and I only see one tree at the pond with very old Beaver chewing markings .

You make the trails sound so appealing. I have not visited all the trails you have listed, but would like to add the trails at Guilford-Mackintosh Park with great views of the lake, and the much better known Bill Craft Trail between Plainfield Road and Northern Middle School. And don’t forget the Cascades Preserve in Oak Ridge. Beautiful cascading stream, particularly after it has rained.

A good work out. Beautiful scenery. A popular trail. Fishing along the river bank. Picnic shelter. New playground for kids.
