Description

Come warmed up to this trail. It starts with a super steep section that is a bit rugged regardless of warm-up. Luckily, it flattens out after about a quarter mile, with only a few somewhat steeper sections. The trail is mostly in good shape, but keep an eye out for any rocks, roots and creek crossings. The grade lessens the closer to the lake you get.
