This update applies to the Burton Section Map Edition of April 2011 or earlier.
Thanks to one of our loyal supporters for reporting an error within the text under Point 25 to the Map Team. While the map clearly shows the trail turning W at the intersection between Ryder Road and Pioneer Trail, ruefully, the text asks hikers to turn E. In addition, a member of the Map Team noticed that the length of Ryder Road was only 5200’ rather than the 6200’ declared in the text. As if that were not enough, another member of the Map Team could find no evidence for either a motel or a restaurant in Hiram at this time. And taking into account all of the trail changes installed by the Burton Section Supervisors described below, please substitute these details for those shown under Point 25 in your Burton Edition of April 2011.
CW 52.9 E | CCW 4.5 N | Point 25 | Alpha Rd (T277) at SR 82
BT turns E onto SR-82 to Ryder Rd (1100’, T-268, exits S). SR-82 continues into Hiram (PO: 44234), the home of Hiram College. BT turns S onto Ryder Rd past Fairview Cemetery. In 5200’, Ryder Rd ends. BT turns W onto Pioneer Trail (5200’, C-254) past Asbury Rd (1900’, T-223, exits S).
