Description

Trail #481 is a good way to make shorter loops in the area. The road down to it can be a little hard at times, but most 4x4's can make it if it's not too muddy.

The trail connects the extension of Stone Bottom Rd. with Trail #481. It is just a nice easy singletrack through the woods until you get close to the Trail #481 junction.
