      All this time, I wondered what this trail was called. This trail has a bunch of intersecting trails that all basically take you back to the same spot but are fun. Some are steep with off camber roots, one section is actually very steep and takes you down to a 3 or 4 foot creek crossing or pond cove?

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
