This trail is probably our most technical trail, winding through the pristine scenery and mature stands of hemlock. It contains many rock outcrops, roots and short, but steep hills to negotiate. The trail is well defined and generally hard packed. There are only a few, yet short lived, wet spots. Enjoy the spectacular view across MacDonald Lake!

This is a great trail combined with Krista Trail.

 Is this well enough maintained to want to pay and ride it? I haven't ridden the forest in a decade.
