Description
This trail follows dark blue blazes. This trail branches off the Bellows Pipe, near the stone wall. It follows alongside the wall eastward and ascends over a series of small switchbacks to the ridge. At the top of the ridge, the trail turns right towards the view. There is a poorly blazed and maintained trail that follows along the ridge to the left, this isn't the trail. It was definitely created by someone who didn't know what they were doing.
