This trail is good cow trial on the upper end. The lower portion is still good trail, but is overgrown w/ thick sage.

The trail follows the left side of the small creek down to a grove of trees. There the trail cuts across the creek and above the trees to contour to the ridgetop. Once at the ridge top, cross the fence, descend to a cowpatch, then left to contour to the ATV road.
