We just finished hiking 40 miles of the Shawnee National Forest's "River To River" trail. It meanders from the Ohio River on the East to the Mississippi on the west. Total length is 161 miles. My adventure was 4 days & 3 nights straight through. These picture are only a small fraction of its abundant beauty.
