Itinerary description

This is a trip I took with Boonie Man in July '09. If you download the tracks I highly recommend that you modify them before using them. They could be helpful in finding the channel on the rivers, the St Johns can be very tricky. We first stopped at few mounds and then went up and down the Econlockhatchee River. From there we went down the St Johns to check out some of the mounds found on the local topo maps. Some of the mounds are not available to the public at this time, but I understand that the state is taking over the property and they will be available to the public. As I said, this is just a reference file for any trip you might plan. I have posted many pictures on Panoramio (Google Earth). Please - take nothing but pictures and leave nothing but footprints.
