Description
This is a fantastic shared-use trail that provides users with excellent mountain views, fresh smelling pine forests, and plentiful flora and fauna. The trail begins at Porcupine Campground, and heads east, albeit in a very crooked way. This trail was part of the old Oakley-Rogerson road that traversed the South Hills.

Most of the streams in this area run dry by fall.
