Need to Know

Mountain bikers often use this as a downhill trail. Stay alert if you opt to run this!

Description

This trail offers two miles of old school, rugged singletrack that keeps coming at you. While a downhill, it makes you work as it traverses into the forest and eventually brings you to the Buttrick Road Trail for a return to the Burr/Paugnut Main Loop.
