Description
This trail starts off Springside East, near the south end of the ballfields. It winds along the singletrack through the woods. It ends when it reaches Springside East. There aren't any signs for the trails here, so it's somewhat difficult to know where one trail ends and the other begins. This trail is named Baby Ruth because it's near a baseball field or someone found a candy wrapper... who knows.
