Camping on the Conecuh Trail
Posted by Rylan on April 14th, 2008 filed in Podcasts
We spent our last night on the Conecuh Trail at a recreation area at Open Lake. They had a very nice shelter which shielded us from the wind while we cooked our lunch, trail pizza. We got the recipe from the guys at Hike It All. They have made a video illustrating how to prepare and cook them. While two of our crew members were away on errands, Golden, Mike, and I discussed the days’ hike, the yellowish-colored water, and some of the food we enjoyed.
Enjoy the trail!

It sounds like the waters of the conecuh may contain tanic acid which come from decaying peat. It is prevalent in the waters of okefonekee swamp. Not harmful to people , in fact early sailors filled their water barrels with this water because the slight acidic water stayed pure longer. So drink up and keep us posted if you do get sick.
