The plaque commemorating TWA Flight 260.
Part of one of the Martin 4-0-4's rotary engines.
More of the TWA wreckage. The large section on the left appears to be part of the vertical stabilizer (the smaller "wings" that are part of the tail).
The trail becomes more overgrown in the last section, though it's rarely difficult to follow.
This is the boulder you'll need to navigate near the end. The large branch is a useful ladder.
Foliage along the trail.
