Pot Point Nature Trail 8.18.1/8

The hike was a fairly easy hike for the 3 seasoned hikers (well 2 seasoned hikers and one wannabe).  We arrived at the trailhead around 8:30.  The weather was warm and humid.  The trail for the first half, was wet and slippery from the rains that went through the area the night before.  We exercised caution and no-one went down on the trail.   The first part of the trail rises at a moderate incline of about 300 feet.  The second half of the hike we made our decent down to the river's edge and continued back to the Pot Point Cabin.  The trail there was a bit more wet and soggy.  About the last 5 minutes of the hike, we encountered a light rain shower.  It actually felt pretty good and seemed to make the humidity abate a bit.   We finished the hike in about 2 hours and encountered fewer ticks and muck than we anticipated.   The trail was well marked and it appears work has been done to maintain the trail.
