Trail Improvements
Waxhaw, NC 2026
This part of the trail is being improved . Parts of the trail are paved with asphalt while other parts remain natural. I think they're going to pave this portion as well.

I've always wondered how accurate our GPS systems are. In this case the sign's latitude is very close to what was recorded to my phone, then to my camera:
Trail Sign: 34˚ 56' 26.2" N
My GPS: 34˚ 56' 25.09" N
That's a difference of about 11 feet between the two values. I'd say that's pretty accurate. Here area the same values for longitude:
Trail Sign: 80˚ 46' 43.6" W
My GPS: 80˚ 46' 44.15" W
That represents a difference of about. 44 feet, at this position of latitude. Still pretty accurate.
