Description
Leaving Bunker Road, the trail initially follows a wide dirt road on the left side of a farm. Then after 150 yards, the trail branches off south passing the last farm building on your right. The trail makes a larger zigzag up the hill side offering you views of Rodeo Valley. After a third of a mile, turn left as an unnamed trail continues straight ahead. The ascend becomes much steeper. The trail levels out at 0.4 miles and joins Upper Fisherman's Trail.
