Comments
Comments: Coot Trail signed and right by the parking area. Once at the top, I realized I'd forgotten my print-out map. Bobcat Trail is not signed at/near the summit (neither is Coot Trail), so we had a few "are we sure we're on the right trail" moments during our descent(compass plus my mental image of the map verified we were).

The drive to the trailhead is well described in the White Mountain Guide, and there are signs along Magalloway Road pointing you in the right direction.

I'll have a short TR on my blog early next week.
