This time out I started at the upper Salzman Rd. Trailhead. Many of the trails in this section I have not been on in a long time. I started off going down Firelane 5 to Leif Ericson to get to the Maple Trail. From the Maple trail I switched on to Salzman Rd. and followed it down to the Lower gate. I then took Firelane 4 up to where it connected with Maple Trail and followed it up to Firelane 3. I then connected with Wildwood to Salzman and then back to my car. I covered 8.5 miles with 1450 gain in a leisurely 3 1/4 hours. The hike started out dry but kept getting wetter and wetter. I got back to my car before the worse came in.
