Directions to Florida Trail Hike in Osceola National Forest

Take US-90 East to Olustee.  One mile beyond the flashing light is the intersection with CR-250A.  Turn left and follow CR-250A North about 4 miles.  Watch for the campground sign and turn left.  Watch carefully for the Florida Trail sign.  You can park on the shoulder of the road.  We will have vehicles at the end to bring drivers back to the starting point.
 We expect to start at 9:00 am, and will have an Explorers sign and at least one car at the starting point.  The hike is about 2.5 miles and should take about two hours, depending upon the pace.  We will be hiking from FR 268 near Ocean Pond to Cobb Camp on FR 235.  (Map)
