D. Boon Hut Trail, Home to Daniel Boone’s Winter Camp Red River Gorge
The D. Boon Hut Trail is located off of the Grays Arch picnic area, leading to a rock shelter with the remains of what is believed to be a camp used by the famed frontiersman, Daniel Boone. Although the trailhead is located just off the picnic area parking lot, making the 0.8 mile hike an easy trek, it also has another entrance via the Grays Arch Trail totaling 1.6 miles. Which brings us to this much longer story, on what happens when you do things on a whim.
