Where is the track?
Title:  Where is the track?
Description:  This is easily the worst conditions we have run across while exploring the out of service section of railroad with standing water an inch above the ties creating very slippery conditions. I walked the railhead and only came off once. My hiking partner decided to test his boots and walked right through.
