Description

This sparsely wooded trail is nothing special, but you can make great loop hikes with Lake of the Woods Trail and the TRT: Echo Lake to Barker Pass. You'll gradually ascend if you're heading east on this one, but the going is easy to navigate, and you'll enjoy more exciting stretches of trail both before and after taking this one.
