Battlefield Forest Creek Loop

Starting at Burnside Bridge parking loop, start on the Final Attack Trail. Follow the trail arrows and hike along a shaded wall until you come to an opening for a connecting trail on your left. Follow this around into the trees. The trail ends at a "T" junction. Turn right and follow this section along down to the creek. Watch for roots as you head downhill to the creek. This now becomes the singletrack and runs VERY close to the creek, so watch your footing as there are some sections with roots. After this, the trail heads uphill and back out into the meadow looping back to the parking lot.
