- At trail marker 33, the ART joins forces with Forest Service road 4N40 for about 3/4 of a mile.
- The ART splits from 4N40 at trail marker 32.
- Continue on the ART for about a mile. The trail will cross the creek; find trail marker 27 on the other side.
- At marker 27, the ART makes a left and heads up the the hill. Forest Service trail P8 picks up straight ahead. Take P8.
- Continue on P8 for a mile or so. It will outlet onto Forest Service road 5N95Y.
- Take a right onto 5N95Y and head up the hill.
- Continue on 5N95Y to the parking area on Valley View Drive. Stay to the right...
- Take Forest Service trail P9 until it outlets onto a Forest Service and take a right. You're back on 4N40.
