Description
This connector trail linking Mesa Top and North Table Loop Trail, as mapped north to south, starts out flat or gently descending, and relatively straight for the first .3 mi. Then it gets steeper (up to 10% grade), more twisty, and rocky for the next .4-.5 mi. The grade eases up again for the last .2 before ending at the North Table Loop Trail.
