At last, I have found the elusive point where the Ridge Runner Trail joins the North Fork Loop. And here there are very faint signs of the Ridge Runner Trail I’ve been hunting for over a year. This sign is in complete isolation and is in one of the two ‘Bermuda Triangles’ of the North Fork Loop, where blazes and trails alike disappear.

You’ll notice there is absolutely no sign pointing in my direction, which is where the North Fork Loop joins.

Next stop Blue Spring on the North Fork River and lunch (and to find out where the trail crosses Hwy CC).
