The Blue Loop is pretty mild and starts at what we call Triceratops Drop, it's not really a drop just a short little downhill to the creek. This loop also features a small cascade when the little creek is running as well as 3 crossings of the creek. It also runs along the side of the Duck Pond where the biggest climb of this loop is located, it's a short climb.

Access Info

Blue Loop is accessed from the north side of the White Loop.
