Description

This is a very sweet singletrack with an amazing viewpoint at the end! Sections of the trail sweep through some Douglas fir and Grand fir forest with little under-story. The scenery is so beautiful in fact, that hikers forget about any pains or fatigue when climbing this section!

Flora & Fauna

Blue Pod Lupine is abundant during the spring
