Trails stay closed after rain much longer here than other trails in the area. For trail status check: usnwc.org.

This is a shared use trail—expect to encounter mountain bikers in addition to runners and hikers.

Description

This trail opened in late February of 2016 and adds another 1.5 miles to one of the best WWC trails. The trail, nicknamed "The Beast of the East," starts off of WWC East Main Extension and climbs a 10% grade for one-tenth of a mile to start. This trail feels like you are climbing the entire time until the end which is a half-mile descent back to WWC East Main Extension.
