Description
The trail in general is a pretty simple gravel path except for the eastern portion. Once you pass the last parking lot going east you come to some larger rock formations. From here you have to maneuver your way up and down some more difficult terrain until the path flattens out again. All along the way, there are plenty of places to spot and fish.
