Need to Know

Trail begins and ends near visitor's center

Description

Lots of varied terrain (older forest with open understory, new-growth forest, rocky outcroppings, and ravines). The trail itself is wide enough to run two across in many places but is not particularly well-maintained (there are "stairs" with lots of erosion around). Some steep areas since there really aren't any switch-backs.
