Happy 🎃 from the Siltstone Trail near Scott’s Gap @JMForest !That’s a big hill!
Twig did pretty well also considering she ate 3/4 bag of Halloween candy last night—wrappers and all.

Due to road construction and the installation of a box culvert, the Siltstone Trail at @JMForest is closed at Bearcamp Rd. The box culvert will help direct water more efficiently and replace the current trail bridge. Construction is expected to be complete by mid-October.
