Description

This trail provides a pleasant run through an aspen forest with lots of greenery. The sound of the creek running along adds to the beauty of the area.

At both the southern end and the northern end, the trail is sometimes hard to find because of the quick growing vegetation and the infrequent use.

This trail can be combined with others to make several different loops. This area does not get a lot of visitors so even running along a road can be quiet.

Aspens line much of the trail. Fresh green in the spring and beautiful yellows in the fall.
