12/8/2024 Medina pt1 to pt6

12/8/2024 Medina pt1 to pt6

To finish and make the most of the weekend, met up with Dave and Victoria for a Medina hike. They needed 1 to 10 but seemed unsure for where they last were at pt1 when finishing Norwalk. We met at Letha House parking West lot past pt6 and shuttled to Wellington Wildlife Area Parking past pt1. This included all of Findlay State Park and Spencer Lake Wildlife Area. Many hunters out since it was gun hunting weekend, but felt safe.  This hike I also finished 100 mile challenge on the APT.

Total was 12.05 miles

Bt sections complete 14

Loveland, Ceasar Creek, Troy, Williamsburg, St. Marys, Delphos, West Union, Sinking Spring, Shawnee, Scioto Trail, Old Man's Cave, New Straitsville, Defiance, Pemberville 

Bt miles 1 way based on complete sections

45.9mi + 55.1mi + 51.9mi + 51.7mi + 45.5mi + 46.5mi + 58.5mi + 53.9mi + 55.7mi + 61.2mi + 52.5mi +60.6mi + 59.9mi + 56.09= 754.99mi

NCT total this year 292.11mi+4.34mi= 296.45mi

Bt total this year 404.25mi + 12.05 mi= 416.3mi

APT this year 12.33mi +5.16mi + 11.91mi + 1.6mi +4.2mi + 8.25mi +12.13 +12.2 + 2.89 + 6.5 +11.19mi +12.05 = 100.41mi counting Florida miles

ADT non concurrent this year 7.31+ 12 + 13.27 + 5.41 = 37.99

Adding APT since sorta exploring this a bit now still not gonna say it's a real trail

Total for year 462.24mi + 12.05mi= 474.29mi

Today is day 343 of year,  on track for 365
