561

Trail Overview

#561 in the Danskin Trail System is mostly an easy ridge line trail, but it starts with a more challenging steep and rocky climb with roots and boulders, thus making it a more challenging trail. From the intersection with #400, it starts with this difficult climb with very loose dirt. There are multiple lines to choose from, but all lines are loose and steep. Getting up this climb could require some advanced maneuvers and skill, but going down it would be a bit easier. From here the rest of the trail is an easy ridge line trail similar to the rest of the trails in the area, of a 3 difficulty. It crosses an intersection with #560, but this intersection is easy to miss since there is no trail sign. Use this trail as a way to bail out from the creek trail back to the ridge lines.
