Farmers Union Canal Trail East

Thursday, Jan 28, 2016

For my first trail post I’m going to share a short little section of trail I discovered recently, running alongside the Farmer’s Union Canal in Star, ID, and trying to stay off gated property.

This trail was littered in spent shotgun shells, so needless to say I stepped up the pace at times for fear of my safety. Nothing came of it though, I’m still here to write about it! I even made a little game of counting the different colours of shells, in this run Team Red won, 8-4-1. Another note about this trail, and the other section I will write about soon, is that they’re FULL of goat-heads. I spent a good 15 mins pulling them out with pliers after the run.
