Trail Overview[edit]
Non-descriptive path through scrub forest mostly used by trail runners.
How To Get There[edit]
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[edit]
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 | Total | Feature | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.00 | Spoone Rec. Area Parking Lot | 1085 | |
| 0.05 | Panther Path Trail at park road | 1083 | |
| 0.15 | Bench along Panther Creek | 1088 | |
| 0.00 | 0.25 | Bridge over Panther Creek | 1095 |
| 0.15 | 0.40 | Unmarked spur trail to campground | 1143 |
| 1.20 | 1.45 | Back at bridge | 1095 |
| 1.70 | Back at parking lot | 1085 |
Typical Conditions[edit]
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[edit]
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.
