Description
Access this trail via the Red Trail Loop rail Loop and Red Trail. Follow the blue blazes. In just a short hike this trail takes you very close to Trask swamp with solid 180 degree views of the swamp and surrounding landscape. Different than the Red Trails, this trail immediately enters much older growth trees.
