If coming from northern end towards Jewell Falls, this is quickest connector to Southern end of FRS. Split by the railroad crossing (must dismount to cross). Southern end of RR crossing requires walking bike up a steep staircase. Trail then follows ridgeline west before a fun quick descent to Indigo trail.
