Trail Overview

This is a gravel two-track trail that leads from Rock Springs Road to an overlook of a swampy area of West Branch State Park. The trail has some water bars that require some clearance to get over. It also has some steep up-and-down sections that could fill with mud in wetter conditions.

Made it to the last drainage pipe and couldn’t get past due to approach angle and broken traction board. The mud hole was easy.
