Description

An alternative to Dante's Trail while in Lower Purgatory Creek Natural Area. Instead of staying low below the dam like Dante's Trail, Beatrice winds you further south and you end on top of the dam with a trail to continue to the south trailhead, or you can follow Ripheus Trail, a gravel doubletrack, back to Dante's Trail.
