| Comments: |
3.5 miles road/skidder walk to where the well defined trail/ herd bath starts. There’s only one section that “makes you go hmmmâ€. I went to the left, up the scramble. There’s a rope/ wire if you look for it in this section. The actual whack is in great shape. A few duck unders, and other than that, pretty steep. |
