Description
This trail follows blue diamonds trail markers. Starting off the Mount Olga Trail, this trail heads south up the hill. The trail passes through a few recently logged areas and continues its moderate ascent. The trail starts to bend to the left and continues its climb to an old woods road. The trail turns right and follows this woods road through a sparse spruce forest. From here, the trail pushes through brambles, sedges, and ferns and reaches the top of a hill before descending steeply to Shearer Hill Road. At the road, the trail turns right. It continues to the parking area at the junction of Shearer Hill Road and Parsons Road.
