My family and I are planning on riding part of the Katy Trail from Hartsburg to Sedailia and we want to camp in New Franklin for the night. Do you know if any of that stretch of trail or the campsite is under water due to the recent rains we've had in Missouri? I appreciate any information you have.

I can't speak for trail conditions west of Boonville, but east of there to Hartsburg is high and dry.

Road the trail Thursday, 7-5-07 from Rocheport to Sedalia. Trail is dry, some areas are a bit rough where the rain pooled and ran off. Keep in mind if you have a lot of gear that the trail is at about a 2-5% incline for a lot of the trip from Boonville to Pilot Grove. After Pilot Grove there is a good decline, but the incline starts again and the last leg from Clifton City to Sedalia will test your endurance. The heat was a major factor, even though you should apply lots of sunscreen the tree canopy is really nice from Boonville to Sedalia. Enjoy your trip, but take your time.
