Description
In either direction, Beautiful Trail is both pleasure and pain. In spots, it has rocks as far as the eye can see, and in other spots it has a great twisty smooth trail that keeps you moving. Hike it in the summer at the peak of blueberry season and you'll have a good chance of running into a bear.
