I've done Ocala hikes at at/around Juniper and Alexander Springs. But, I've
done them in winter. The last time they had record lows of 28 degrees. The
early morning hike ending at one of those two places sounds ideal, actually.
Alas, it's a five hour drive from where I live, so it's a bit of a chore to get
there. But then again, what hiking trip isn't a chore? I may just try it
out.
Thanks for the idea! What about bugs? Aren't they a problem that time of the
day?
