Copperas Cave Branch

Miles: 16.1
Seems I've misplaced my trekking partner. We missed Turkey Foot campground but on to Resurgence Cave where War Fork emerges from ground. I pushed through sticky muddy section before Arvel, out of water and wanting to check out the general store the guidebook mentions twice. It did not exist, Arvel was a few homes with an especially dense and dull feel to it. Couldn't wait to get out of there and back to cover of the woods. Finally found water after more annoying trail of mud holes, poison ivy, and blowdowns. Days like this really make me dislike the trail and the rural culture of Kentucky. Found a hidden spot before start of long road walk and ditched it in the woods. Natural Bridge is two days away, if I had my druthers I'd rise at 4am and make it there by dark tomorrow to finally get this intolerable stretch finished. And of course hitting the post office on a Sunday. Well, no sign of LW, not that he'd see me tucked away in these trees as I am very hidden. Hope to meet up with him in the morning. The ground was cold last night, will I awake cold again tonight?
