Trail Overview

Trail 9 is a 1.3-mile, wide path that traces the side of the mountain, offering a mellow and scenic ride. Mostly descending from north to south, it's generally easygoing with leaf cover hiding loose rocks, sticks, and roots here and there. A short section next to a trickling mossy waterfall is fun to see, and adds a bit more of a challenge with bigger embedded rocks creating a briefly jarring surface. Overall, it's a beautiful and easy trail. A Do Not Enter sign at the south end of this trail indicates that it is one-way directional, North to South.

Open

There were 2 downed trees blocking the trail about 2/3 the way down. I Could not get under or around them on an ATV. They were too big to move and there was no go way to go around. I had to back track. Dirt bikes would make it under the trees fine.
