Blackwell Bay

I flaked out on posting last night but we had a good day! In the morning Moki and I hiked portions of the Fort Henry trails from one bay and then were picked up a few bays south. Fort Henry is actually underwater in Kentucky Lake. Its low elevation is why the Union was able to easily conquer it and take over Fort Donelson on the Cumberland River only days later. This area of LBL was hit by a tornado a couple years back and the trail was really hard to follow as lots of trees are down, undoubtedly some that once had trail markings on them. We did get off the trail for a bit but in doing so we stumbled on a Civil War cemetery. After our adventure we headed south and are now out of LBL… oh… and we’re also in Tennessee BTW… forgot to mention that last post. Our Anchorage for the evening was just beyond the old Danville bridge and the old Danville grain elevator. We tucked into a little bay with a long peninsula for the pup walk.Leia mais
