Mohican Trail Run: The end of the Root Climb?

Yesterday at Mohican 2017 Trail Runs many of us were surprised that that the popular "Root Climb". at Little Lyons Falls was cut out of the course.  I honor hazard I guess -  but one that made the course unique. I well -  everything changes.

Still a great day with wonderful people across the whole course and most especially at the aid stations!

Great Seal State Park . -Snowy Winter Run

Taken from the ODNR website:


Great Seal State Park is located just north of the town of Chillicothe and dedicated to the wilderness spirit of Ohio. The history of the Shawnee nation and Ohio's early statehood is centered in these rugged hills. Challenging trails through the 1,862-acre park take visitors to scenic vistas of distant ridgetops and the Scioto Valley below. These very hills are depicted on the Great Seal of the State of Ohio, from which the park gets its name. First depicted in 1803, the seal was often reconfigured until the present image was sanctioned by the Ohio General Assemble in 1967 and modified in 1996. In 1803, the law prescribed the sheaf of wheat to represent Ohio’s agricultural roots and the bundle of seventeen arrows to symbolize Ohio’s place as the seventeenth state in the Union. The range of hills seen in the background of the seal, include Mount Logan, as viewed from Thomas Worthington’s estate, Adena, now a state memorial.
