8_7_2015 App Gap to Hedgehog Brook Trail

Started the day by dropping the truck off at the Hedgehog Trail Head and then went to the LT trail head on Route 17. Started on the trail at about 8:30, the morning was cool and a bit overcast. Pretty much straight up until you reach the summit of Baby Stark. We met a couple of tru hiker headed south along with two day hikes coming in from Beane Trail. We stopped at Birch Glen and met a family that had come up the Beane Trail, there was some garbage at the camp and they backed it out which was very nice of them. Stopped at Huntington Gap for a quick halve sandwich and motored on to Cowles Cove. The signage at the shelter was a bit old, needs to be replaced. When we got to the junction of LT/Hedgehog we had our remaining sandwich and head down the trail to the truck. Cindy took advantage of the brook just before the parking to cool off. Another great day on the LT
