Description

In either direction, Beautiful Trail is both pleasure and pain. In spots, it has rocks as far as the eye can see, and in other spots it has a great twisty smooth trail that keeps you moving.

Hike it in the summer at the peak of blueberry season and you'll have a good chance of running into a bear.

This picture is in the middle of Beautiful Trail. It was mostly flat with a few rocks. At the one end of the trail there was an outcropping of rocks with a pretty view.
