The flat exposed rock in the creek bed lends this trail its name. Many fossils are visible in the exposed creek bed. Along the trail you will see evidence of the CCC and early settlers, creek views, and big rock formations. This trail gives riders a choice of a three, four, or five mile ride and the difficulty increases with each mile added. Also it has the remnants of where a old sawmill used to be.
