(MS-) Louisiana: Driskill Mountain (-AR-MO)

Louisiana's Driskill Mountain was located in the remote areas of the state where churches seem more common than people. Also houses not in the trailer home format are rare and far between...


The weather was not very cooperative, although we did have less heavy rain than what we drove through just half an hour before our hike. The problem though was the soil which consisted of very red clay like material which got very muddy and slippery (and discoloring) when walking in it.


Markus made sure to sign the ledger now that he had successfully doubles his highpoint count in USA (While protecting his backpack full of electronics under his jacket).
