Description

This trail can be done as and out-and-back, or you can link it to other trails in the area; it starts at the end of E. Horsehead Road. The trail up can be a bit rugged with some loose rock. There are a few steep sections as well. The trail is short enough though that it is easily done as and out-and-back hike.
