“A great way to climb or descend on the PRT, this section is a little more rugged. ”

Description

The western portion of the PRT is slightly more rugged than PRT East. The top mile is pretty new with a great variety of terrain. Along the way, be on the lookout for cutoff trails that provide loop/bailout options to PRT East.

To hike a full loop, check out the Peterson Ridge Trail Outer Loop.

Check out this map for a complete overview of the trail system.
