Runner Notes

This is a STEEP trail! There are significant portions where you'll be straight up walking.

Description

The uphill is grueling on this trail. Once you summit behind Arthur's Rock, however, you can turn to descend this tree-sheltered trail, or hit one of the other great trails in the nearby.
