Features: -none-
Family Friendly: Short Cut to the Boundary Trail to Crystal Springs Loop Trail makes a nice loop for kids. The trail is wide with very few obstacles along the way.

Description

The Short Cut Trail is a long forgotten road that connects to the Boundary Trail. If you're up for the 7 mile Boundary Trail keep riding straight up the mountain. If you don't have the time or energy for the loop ride then turn left onto the Boundary Trail and follow it to Crystal Springs Loop Trail.
