Anybody know if this trail is still maintained since the USFS abandoned it?

I hiked the section from the loop road to Plantation a couple years ago. It didn't seem any worse than the rest of the trails in there then. I never knew it was abandoned. We hiked it the day after a big rain and the run was way up making the crossings a little work. But it wasn't bad.

For those who don't know, Lindy Run trail is on Canaan Mt. in WV. It would be helpful for folks to add a little location info to help out. I've hiked so many trails in WV that I had to look up where this was. Knew the name but couldn't place it right away. I have hiked this trail a few times in the past and it was always nice. The issue now is that a very small section of the trail (maybe a hundred yards) crosses the property of Allegheny Wood Products before meeting the Canaan Loop Road. For that reason it is officially closed north of Plantation Trail. Recent reports suggest it is washed out quite a bit but that was from a mountain biker. I would imagine it is still fairly passable but where it comes out on CLR is a good ways from another trail.

Thanks for info. I didn't give a location because I have such high regards for the encyclopedic knowledge of the posters.

No problem, just wasn’t processing the name at first.

So true jnk and then there are some trails that are named similarly that don't help things.
