This trail has a well defined dirt and sandstone path, but was significantly impacted by the 2008 wildfire, thus now winds through the burn area. Be careful of the remaining small blowdowns which are still falling across the trail. A couple of large (8+") blowdowns were also observed, which will require professional removal. Briars are sprouting along the path. | This trail has a well defined dirt and sandstone path, but was significantly impacted by the 2008 wildfire, thus now winds through the burn area.
