Trip Report

ReporterEliziabeth Malatin

If you do venture into Linville, I would recommend covering up your body. The Connely Cove trail is lined in places with stinging nettles and the river has some of the most poison ivy I have ever seen. It is mostly avoidable but the scouts at the Clog and at the Wall involve some contact.

I bring soap with me.

Cheers
