Econfina Creek 2011 Flower Hike

On 4-16-2011 I went on a Florida Trail Association hike on the Florida Trail Econfina Section with the Panhandle Chapter. It is called the Annual Flower Hike. Luckily the Mountain Laurel was in full bloom. We hiked from the Scott Rd. Trailhead south along Econfina Creek to the Apple Bridge and back again.
