Description
This trail has three distinct sections: The southern end (near the start at the Bell Rock Trailhead) suffers from highway noise and overhead power lines and is not very aesthetic. The middle section is actually on paved roads through a neighborhood. The USFS has put up carsonite trail markers, but they're very hard to follow. Use the Trail Run Project Mobile App to stay on the path! The northern section is scenic and smooth singletrack. This makes getting through the other parts worth the journey.
