Kind of rough section of the BST. Plenty of steep parts and chundery rock sections. Dead-ends at someone's fence. Little more technical than most of the other sections of the BST.

This trail is unsanctioned.

Disclaimer

This trail was widened in 2020 as a firebreak during the Ether Fire, then chewed up to discourage motor vehicles, leaving it a big mess.
