A bridge crosses over a dry creekbed near Rock Creek on the Kentucky Trail (north segment). After the bridge, there are stairs that lead up to Wilson Ridge and eventually connect back to the KY Trail near Blue Heron.

Great trail that accesses the Big South Fork back-country. It is shared with bikers and offers plenty of waterfalls and awesome land forms.
