The highlight of this segment has to be tunnel. It is pretty cool to walk through. I thought the guide book was just being over cautious by recommending a flashlight but quickly found out that a flashlight is not recommended equipment but REQUIRED. The first time through the tunnel I had my bike and had to get off and walk the bike through the tunnel as I held my cell phone flashlight out to see even a foot in front of my face. It was early in the morning and was pitch black within a few feet of entering the tunnel. I have a great video of all black for 3 minutes, but I'll have to work on getting that on here. But thanks to the sun shining in there in the afternoon there was more light, but it was still impossible to see.
The rest of the hike was pretty good. The sections off the bike path are enjoyable. Saw some fellow IAT hikers on a connecting route shortly after lunch so that's always nice to see.
