Report

This route was run from East at Jerome Rd and The Wabash-Cannonball Trail Head to west at CR 13 in Montpelier, OH. This was supported by a one-person crew met at 5 checkpoints along the route with food and water. The trail is paved from the start through checkpoint one, which was Springbrook Grove on the West side of Oak Openings Metropark. Beyond that point it is a mix of grass/dirt, crushed stone, and occasional segments of asphalt paving near towns. Recent rains left standing shallow water in some areas. A prescribed 'detour' was followed around a busy train track that crosses the trail. Toledo Roadrunners and Northwestern Ohio Rails-to-Trails Association, Inc. where notified in advance of the run.
