Bounded in places by private land. Avoid blocking or interfering with oil wells. Do not park near wells or block road with vehicles.

Description

From Bald Rock Fork Road, the climb up Lower Spring Hollow Road is long and steep. From Flat Hollow Trailhead, the climb is more gradual and enjoyable. You can continue along Spring Hollow from the upper terminus of Flat Holler and drop back to Bald Rock to combine with the Crags Loop Road and Sore Heel Trail for a nice long loop.
