Awesome hike, Stephen! I will definitely check out Blackwater Creek. You’re one of the very few folks that I know who know about “bull bats”! In my youth, I saw and heard them just about every evening during the summer. Their diving sound is so cool. But I haven’t seen/heard one in many years now. Thanks for your trips and insights!
Hi Mr. Walker Blackwater Creek..I have never been to yet haha I don't believe You hike with bare feet to creek No worries for ticks, snakes...? You enjoy this tranquility to yourself. I don't see any other souls her but YOU I have kayaked so many places in FL, especially springs are phenomenal, unforgettable... Kayak7seas and I just visited the CRACK hahah Just such a pleasure get to know you. Look forward to your future projects
As an avid barefoot hiker I will assure you being a hippy is not required. You will need to relax and enjoy your surroundings, every hike will be different even if you're on the same trail. Be prepared to be more present, aware and tuned in to nature as everyday stress is left behind like footprints.
Yeah I think I’ll be doing most of my hiking with my shoes on. Just figured I’d give it a try. I worried more about getting a splinter or a stick jabbing in my foot.
