Characteristics
and
Description
|
This is a short loop trail through a cedar-spruce ecosystem. An interpretive
sign which describes the vegetation and wildlife along the trail is located near the start
of the trail. This trail is actively used by bears; large hollow cedar trees have provided
den locations in the past. Please stay on developed trails and treat the area with care.
Trail may be closed seasonally due to Black Bear activity.
