Trail Overview

OP 18 is a 2-mile route that runs from OP 14 deeper into the trail system, serving as a connector to several easy trails. It drops down to a dense, lush forest floor, before climbing to 2,800 feet elevation on the north end on an easy path through the hilltops through pitch pines and poplar trees. Expect easy smooth sections, sections with minor embedded rock, a few tight switchbacks, and semi-steep grades. Despite these features, the trail remains easy overall and is well-suited to all skill levels.
