Description

This trail departs the Bear Branch Creek Trail #405/Indian Kitchen Loop trail at Bear Branch Creek. It climbs a significant hill and wanders through some scrappy woodland with a small rocky barren, but several portions of the trail are frequently quite muddy. The trail officially ends at a private property boundary. Watch closely for boundary markers along the property line.
