Summary: I did this one seeking a geocache that was placed by kayak, so their wasn't much of a trail for much of the hike. There were a couple river crossing points using downed trees, but it wasn't easy.

I was hoping to see some gators, but all I saw was a snake and a few spiders (ate one by accident).

I would recommend hiking north from this canoe launch, not south like I did. I've been north a few times and there is a better trail and a rope swing along the river.
