Description

The Pontatoc Ridge Trail #411 starts approximately 3/4 of a mile up Pontatoc Trail #410. At the signed junction, head SW to start the trail. The trail goes along the Pontatoc Ridge climbing approximately 1,000 feet after leaving Pontatoc Trail #410.

Please stay along the designated trail; there are obvious but unofficial trails that continue to abandoned mining areas which are dangerous and should be avoided.
