Description
From the trailhead, take the Future Roadway up to the Crossover Trail, then continue right onto the Black Trail. When at the intersection of the Black/Blue trail, continue left. At the next trail divergence (after you pass the water tanks), take the Blue Trail to the right. This is a steeper portion of the trail with some technical areas of loose rocks and roots. At the bottom of the hill, take a right onto the Blue/Green Trail, then veer left along the edge of the trees through the fields. There are several small runoff streams in this area during wet weather. At the next trail intersection, take a left onto the Green Trail. This will take you back to the steep hill on the Blue trail. Here you'll go up the hill this time, then take a right onto the Black trail. This will bring you back to the crossover trail where you started. Here you'll go down and across the roadway to the Blue Trail and veer left, then right up the hill on the Red Trail. This is the steepest portion of the trail up to Enid's Eyrie. Once at the top, you can enjoy the view, then turn around and go back down the Red Trail, and hand a right onto the Red/Blue Trail. This is almost completely downhill and takes you back to the trailhead.
