DAY 5 - HERMANN TO AUGUSTA - 36.6 miles
This section of the trail is absolutely gorgeous. River on the right, bluffs on the left, and a beautiful tree canopy that goes on for miles. The miles seemed to just roll away. When I arrived at the Augusta trailhead, I called my B&B reservation and the owner picked me up. I was in for a special treat this last night on the trail! The Enchanted Owl - if you have a chance, do yourself a favor and stay with them.
Started the day with a delicious breakfast at the Crown Hotel.
This tree canopy went on for miles between Hermann and Augusta.
The creeks where especially reflective this morning.
Rest stop areas like this are numerous along the river.
I could not resist another stop along the river. Needless to say, it takes me awhile to get where I am going.
