AM I just imagining this or did I communicate with you a while back and mentioned the Misner Trail/Hollow?? lol
I had taken a few friends on that hike and my girlfriend at the time - that later became my wife - on that very hike.
I've recently hiked up the Cushman via the 'Gas Well' road. Its a road in name but I'm not even sure my 4x4 with high clearance could make it to the Gas Well Camp - there where Butler Hollow runs on up to Cushman. I'm pretty sure that camp is going by another name - I've always referred to it as the 'Gas Well ' camp though since it's up Gas Well Hollow.
I met Harry Finkbiner (Jr.) up at the store back in the mid 80's and started to learn to fly fish. He mentioned to me, back then, that if I ever got up there to give him a call and he'd go fishing with me. I've been doing just that for the past 30 some years now. I was/am so lucky to have him as a fishing buddy.
Maybe I should try and stop by in Leetonia this Spring to see if you are back in the house? Not sure which one it is but I bet if I as Tom or Deb at the store they'd let me know.(only if that's ok with you)
Take care and keep writing - I enjoy your stories of the area.
CS ( I think I signed a message to you in the past that way)
Gas Well camp is a tough one even for the 4 wheeler as you said. I have been back there with my FJ crusier, but it is rough. That is a beautiful hike as well...love the meadow. I will be back and forth to my place in Spring, but I am renting it out a lot through AirBnb by the end of May so it will be hit or miss catching me on weekends. Glad you are enjoying the hikes.
