Description
This trail can be traveled in either direction, but is described here from the point it leaves the dirt road connector back to the trailhead. Watch for a brown signpost on the right marking the trail, then follow the singletrack up and onto an abandoned roadbed. The trail follows this roadbed as it traverses through several draws. Another signpost directs you to veer right onto a steeper downhill section that leads to the creek bottom. Several steeper water bars add a little interest to this section. At the bottom, follow the sign pointing back to the trailhead by making a hard right onto a really nice section of singletrack along the creek. Enjoy this beautiful section of trail all the way back to the parking area.
