A lot of the Old Settlers Trail is located along—and often across—streams varying in size from small brooks, like this, and large, hazardous rivers.
The defining feature of the Old Settlers Trail is the abundance of stone walls and chimneys evincing the homesteads that once populated the area. There are multiple such stretches as pictured here, where the trail is basically walled in.
