Husband has taken this trail every morning alone for years to mile marker 3 from Lexington side. I went with him this morning, he was a mile ahead of me. You will always see others on this trail. Deer, bears never reported here. 80% of people do this trail alone.

A:
You can do most of the trail (starting at the Lexington end) with no problem.
