The second of 3 old logging cart tracks. The upper section is mostly singletrack with one short muddy section, followed by a short steep downhill before it turns to mature deep forest, then widens to doubletrack width at the bottom. Frog Attack trail turns off to the right just before it connects to the Backroad trail.

Access Info

Following the second left turn off Lady Slipper road, you will need to pass the first branch off that, and then keeping left at the next intersection. Keep right then to climb all the way up, following the ridge road. Once up and following the CB stream river valley, the first right is the entrance to Ledges, then the second right is the entrance to Bushpilot.

 Trail no longer exists since being harvested in winter of 2024. Cannot discern trail among the brush, slash, stumps and significant debris.

 Grown in pretty good. Mostly dry but one rainfall and the bog section will be afloat again

 Hasn't gotten much traffic so trail isn't clear in some spots. In great shape, just needs some more wheels.
