This trail branches off the RRR Brooks Trail to begin its ascent. It rises up towards the top of a hill, where there are excellent views. It re-enters the woods and travels moderately. Around White Rocks, the trail passes by an interpretive wind farm. It skirts around the another hill and ends at the Taconic Crest Trail.
