Dec 2012 Perdido River: The north part of the Alabama Trail along the Perdido River was walked and GPS'd by Marion Campbell and Tommy Smith in October. This section begins (or ends) at Barrineau Park (a sub-division in Florida and a road that bears its name that crosses from Alabama into Florida) to the north end of the state's new canoe trail. The map and waypoints have been sent to Forever Wild for approval. The official length of the section of the Alabama Trail between the Forever Wild canoe put-in and take outs (our north and south trailheads) is 13-miles
