When I went on a hike I had the theme of pathways on my mind. I took this hike at Castlewood State Park in Missouri. It is a nice day use area, but if you are planning a visit, I would recommend you bring bug spray. This hike was about 3 miles and featured quite a bit of elevation considering that it was in Missouri. Here is part of the path; it looked like several paths in a lot of spots:

If you did not look closely, you could lose the trail with markers like these:
ISO 100 50mm 0ev f/5.6 1/60
Parts of the are were not very friendly looking:
ISO 640 50mm 0ev f/5.6 1/125
And there was this little guy, making his own path:
ISO 640 50mm 0ev f/5.6 1/3200
Cheers!
