Trail Overview
Trail 3 starts off of Trail 1 with a downhill descent that is steep and full of loose rocks. It's also troughed with braided lines. The first part is the steepest. It keeps descending down to a road crossing, then goes through a pinch point. It's a bit less rocky after that first road crossing. It levels out, with some curves through the pine trees and banked corners, and widens up. You have to go through some big trenched mud crossings. Then it gets really steep again near the south end when it goes down another hill. The south end of the trail has a shelfy and narrow section on the edge of the mountainside, before coming to the parking lot on Nettleton Gulch Road.
