Description
This simple trail winds its way from the Lower Blanchard Hill Parking Lot to the Upper Blanchard Hill Parking Lot. Along the gentle climb, it winds through a leafy forest and crosses the occasional slab of small rock. Best for those who want to lengthen their hike, otherwise skip this trail and head directly to the upper lot.
