“A part of Thunder Road at Sansom Park.”

Description

This is another loop that branches off from Thunder Road. Unlike many "loops" in the park, this one leaves from and returns to the same place on Thunder Road. If you do Thunder Road then you'll probably do this loop on accident as I did. It isn't really that well marked but you'll realize it about the third time you go across the same set of roots. It flows really well though so it's not bad, and if you finally figure it out, you can make a quick step over to Thunder Road.

Stay right, the red arrows are new but do not always indicate Thunder Road so be careful when following them as you may end up somewhere you are not prepared for.

Watch out for this little fella it will sneak up on you because it is right when you come around a corner. Careful with your landing as you can see there are two good size rocks that will mess up a rim.
