History

This trail passes through a portion of the forest that burned in the Sand Mountain Fire of Summer 2021 that burned over 1600 acres in the thick timber. You will be able to see the fireline that was built to contain the fire and will see a lot of blackened trees and very little to no underbrush in the timber.
