Land Owner
The trail is technical with large boulders/rocks and fallen trees needing to be navigated, with the occasional steep scramble to get around the rock faces. Near the end, you'll work your way beneath (15' or so) the bridge that provides access to Coopers Rock.
The final 100 feet is a steep scramble up a small boulder field, which leads to the main visitor center and parking lot. From here you can access the Roadside Trail or continue along the mountainside on the Sunset Wall Trail.
