Trail Overview

You can access this trail by starting on MT 30 and turning onto FDR 38. You'll drive on a cliff and end at the creek with some major overgrowth. It appears there's a way out, but unfortunately, that is not the case. This is an out-and-back trail, but you can also start/end it with riding Coon Creek Ruins. You'll want to keep the group small since there's not much room to turn around. You'll also experience lots of pinstripes, so be prepared. Overall, the views are spectacular and you won't be disappointed.
