This is an easy spin on some of the older trails in big river. It's a nice mix of pine covered loam, roots and stream crossings. there are some difficult sections on Lower Piney, but those can be walked up or down if you're not ready for this section of trail.
Overall, this route will give you that classic rolling cross country feeling. You'll go up, you'll go down. You won't have to huck to flat, unless you really want to.
Happy Trails.
