Description

This trail can be entered off Seeger Rd / Rag Hollow Rd and sends you flying down the 1.2 mile fall line trail increasing in steepness, drop off steps, and loose rocks making sure you keep your wits about you.

It has also been part of the Wilderness 101 race for the past several years as you exit the trail into aid station 3.

At the end, take a left on Spencer Trail and follow that out to the intersection of Spencer Trail, Sassafras Trail and Rag Hollow Rd.
