Description

The access point off US 70 has no dedicated parking. Enter through the opening in the fence next to the sign. The trail moves through some oaks and across a small footbridge. The trail continues intermittently through wooded areas and open areas with cedar trees a few ruts and a few roots. There is a creek crossing where a bridge has washed out and has been replaced with a single board between a couple of rocks. There is more back and forth between woods and open area until getting to the northern trailhead.

Flora & Fauna

Various oaks, eastern red cedar, whitetail deer, cottontail rabbit.
