Fun little trail usually approached from morro ridge road with a slight climb up where there is a sort of lookout over the entire park, beautiful view all the way to the ocean. then you drop down a fun descent that is fast and swoopy, usually followed up with continuation on fence line, also swoopy.

Access Info

can access from 133, up willow, up bonmer ridge, up morro road.
