Trail Overview
This is a peaceful rocky shortcut with boulders bordering the trail. The rocks look like they are waiting to be cut into gems. The route is faint in spots and not well-traveled. Some of the mud holes can be avoided. It connects FR 100 Encino and FR 99 Burny and Cole Point and saves over 6 miles as a shortcut.
