Loop Point Return

Just marked the loop point on our return. :)

Information Point

This is the core information point for the trail. The trail is well marked with Yellow Paint and markers. The trail is also very well maintained and is bolstered with wood logs and planks where needed. The surface is mainly roots so walk carefully and humbly. There are some pretty far drops so if you are traveling with little ones you want them close to you at all times especially when coming out of the woods on clearings where the rock face is exposed.

Loop Point

The Trail from here is a loop. If you go left you will return on the right hand trail if you go right you will come back on the left hand trail. Oh the decisions in life...
