Little used singletrack trail that can be used to make a loop in conjunction with adjacent trails.

The trail becomes very faint on an open sage covered ridge ~1/4 mile from the east end. Here descend the open ridge to the first group of large burned trees and bear right just below them. The trail becomes more visible as it contours to the next gulch.

The trail is narrow at times with frequent pedal catching hummocks on the open sidehills.
