Description

South Rainbow Lake Trail No. 9002 begins at a timber chicane and marker post on Miner's Creek Road, just uphill of the Peaks Trail crossing. The trail follows an old, rolling doubletrack and ends at a tee intersection with Bill's Ranch Trail No. 9000 at another marker. It is a useful bypass of the Peaks Trail to Masontown Trail, via Bill's Ranch Trail No. 9000.

The trails in the Rainbow Lake area are an easy spot to see fall color, and the crowds disappear once you get past the lake.
