Itinerary description
NWR Trail 3 is about 0.6 miles east of the Marsh Trail parking lot on the south side of US-41. There's a signpost. After you unload your craft, park off the road shoulder against the vegetation to stay as far from the traveled lane as possible.
The marked trail heads south, but we decided to throw caution to the winds and blindly follow Mac, who held a relatively straight SSW course until we couldn't go any farther. On the way back, we roughly paralleled our outbound course. Since we didn't see any of the surveyors flagging we put out there to mark previous trails, we figured this was unexplored territory.
The weather is finally getting tolerable, and today's sunrise was worth the trip. We rate the trip as moderate because of the dead-reckoning navigation.
