Has anyone been on this trail? Apparently that will be part of Great Eastern Trail that parallels Appalachian Trail and goes through Eastern Kentucky. Considering trip this fall. Any recommendations?

3 people here in our city hiked there recently
1 rattlesnake bite
2 robbed and beat with pistol
3 truck windows smashed, keyed badly

They said they won't go back

I know there is Paddock sarcasm... but seriously? Like really?

8 oldsports_,

Bunch of pansies. I mean they only pistol whipped them, did not even shoot them. Keyed and broke windows, did not steal or blow up the car.

Don't know which is worse, the soft hikers or the even softer hoodlums.

The rattlesnake is the only thing to be taken seriously in this whole deal.

That sucks if it really is that bad. That trail will basically parallel the Appalachian Trail and be part of the Great Eastern Trail going all the way to NY. Nobody is going to use it if it really is dangerous. Snakes are easy.
