Buzz is located in the powerline right-of-way, linking the Odonata/CBT junction to Hemiptera. The trail can be ridden in both directions. From the Odonata/CBT junction Buzz offers an alternative route to Hemiptera, and from there you can continue over to the entrance of Hymenoptera or on to CBT. Using Buzz, it will take you 8 minutes to ride from the end of Hymenoptera back up to the start. There is also a spur off of Buzz that leads over to a midpoint of Hymenoptera.

Access Info

Access the west end from the CBT/Odanata junction. Access the east end from Hemiptera.
