Cold night at Kephart

Log bridge crossing the Oconaluftee River on the Kephart Prong Trail. All river crossings on this trail are like this except for the initial river crossing, which is a large bridge.
One of the creeks crossing the trail toward the end of the trail. After rain showers, the trail can become wet and muddy as water makes its way downhill.
