Trail Overview

This trail is heavily overgrown, with thick weeds and brush lining both sides of the path. Much of the vegetation is covered in cockleburs, which are notorious for clinging to clothing, pets, and even soft top material on vehicles. While there are no major obstacles, the dense overgrowth makes this route more of an annoyance than a challenge. Drivers and passengers should be prepared to deal with burrs if exiting the vehicle or brushing against the trail edges. Despite its simplicity in terrain, this trail is best navigated slowly to avoid unnecessary contact with the vegetation.
