I know I've mentioned appreciating improvements to the trail like the scout bridge and stone walkways that save us long detours. They are wonderful.
We came upon another "improvement" today. About a mile of the AT was redone like a walkway in Longwood Gardens. There was a layer of weed proofing fabric covered with a rubber grid and perfect dark grey crushed stone that made it feel so sterile. I'm sure the intentions were good but it felt very strange.
This was a rough part where the stone had washed away a bit so you can see the rubber webbing that tries to keep the stone in place.
