Trail Overview

This trail is best run from east to west but can be run both ways. If ran from east to west, you will come into the Skyline WMA where this track is located. As you enter the area you will come to a fork. Take the left trail and cross the creek. Depending on the time of year there may or may not be water in the creek. As you continue the trail you will come to an area with a steep incline with multiple terrace spots. In the fall or rain seasons, this part can be very difficult due to becoming slick. After the climb, it evens out more and there are many beautiful spots to stop and take pictures or have a picnic. In the end, you will exit through County Road 13 out to the main highway.
