As with the Loop Trail, this section is a wide singletrack, level and smoothly graded for groomed cross country skiing, but is a good introduction to riding in the woods. There are a couple small log piles to roll over, adjacent to the main trail.

Start/end points shown on map and profile are arbitrary.

Access Info

Due to the nature of the soil and the ridge top location these trails should be avoided after it has recently rained. This a also a great place to cross country ski in the winter since the Laurel Ridge gets more snow than anywhere else Trails are closed to biking during snow cover. See www.paccsa.org/lrwebcam for webcam.
