Description

Harris Trail is a one-mile trail that runs from the Shovelton Trail to the Rock Wall Trail on Wade Mountain.

From the Shovelton Trail, the trailhead is well-marked by a large wooden sign directing you toward a rocky incline that ends near 1/4 mile and 100 feet later near the top of Wade Mountain. For the next 1/2 mile things flatten out with only a few rocky spots to worry about.

At 3/4 of a mile, the trail starts to descend aggressively and 1/10 of a mile later it loops around a large waterfall, which is the highlight of the trail. After heavy rain, it's a beautiful sight and when it's dry you can spend some time crawling around on its large rocks. The last 1/2 mile continues to get steeper and rockier until it finally ends at an intersection with the Rock Wall Trail and the Shovelton Trail.

Waterfall and rock wall at the start of the East Fork of Pinhook Creek on the Harris Trail.  When dry you can climb around this.
