This marker is on the south side of the Scioto River, just across from Pfeiffer Station. The previous day and on this morning I had been riding to site’s along Hull’s Trace, as the route used by the War of 1812 armies came to be known. I should have stuck with that them and ridden more of County Road 265, which seems to follow that route through Hardin County. In Logan County I mostly had to ride to places where I could see at a distance the valleys along which the armies had marched. Here in Hardin County there is an existing road — County Road 265 — that is said to follow the route fairly closely.
And it’s a good one for riding.
My route for the day is shown in green. County Road 265 is marked with a reddish line.
