Description
The trail to the top of Hedgehog is similar to many trails in this region. Typically, the trail is soft loamy soil, though when it rains, mud can be a persistent problem. Additionally, water or fallen leaves often make footing something that you'll want to pay attention to. This trail segment connects the top of Roostercomb to the top of Hedgehog. Continue southwest from the top of Roostercomb, and you'll be on track. Blazes point the way, and there are no trail intersections to get lost at. Enjoy the rolling hills, and the old trees. This is a brilliant place to spend a few hours.
