Trail Overview

Non-descriptive path through scrub forest mostly used by trail runners.

How To Get There

Once at the state park, closest parking is the Spoone Recreation Area. Parking at playground/pool area will require a walk through an intermittently mown field.

Route Description

Will have to start with a short segment of the Panther Path Trail to reach the bridge crossing Panther Creek to access this loop trail. Clockwise or counterclockwise have similar experience.

Mileage Feature Elevation
(0.25) Spoone Rec. Area Parking Lot 1085
(0.20) Panther Path Trail at park road 1083
(0.10) Bench along Panther Creek 1088
0.00 Bridge over Panther Creek 1095
0.xx Unmarked spur trail to campground 1143
1.20 Back at bridge 1095
(1.70) Back at parking lot 1085

Typical Conditions

Forest road cut through scrub trees. Deep erosion in places as water not purposefully directed off the trail. White lines on the ground showing the high school cross-country route used in the park by combining several trail segments.

Miscellaneous Information

Reportedly a self-guided tour, but the trailhead kiosk did not have any information, which must be at the Welcome Center. Only saw some of the numbered posts from 2004.
