Description

The trail is steep at first but then levels off as you approach the bunker. Lots of pine trees up top and a mostly shaded trail. The bunker is cool to see, covered in graffiti. Other connector trails can be found toward the top the hill.

With Josh, Brady, and Allyssa. VERY muddy; bad mosquitoes. Pretty steep too; but cool bunker and views!

The trail leads to the first pillbox. If you go down to your right 300 ft you can find the famous peace pillbox 0.7mi
