Description

This trail is a short side loop off of the main doubletrack Ranch Road Trail. It is a narrow singletrack trail that wanders through a large stand of saplings, but makes for a very dense section of forest that creates an extremely shady portion of the trail. Worth the effort to enjoy some shade and some lovely greenery.
