| Comments: |
This is a great trail for exercising as there are a lot of up and downs. There were two really nice vistas just off the trail that look eastward. Gordon Pond is beautiful. There is a lot of round leaf sundew on the shore. Also, there is a campsite near the shore so this would be a good place camp. |
