Description

On Concrete Bridge Road there is a well-marked turn-off that says it's a dead end (it's not). This trail starts as a fire road and eventually winnows down to a singletrack as it passes an area with young, thin loblolly pines. After only a third of a mile, you connect up with New Hope Creek North.
