Description

From the Big Walker Lookout, cross RT 52 and head east on this gravel fire road. Along the road, you'll see several lookouts crossing over the interstate tunnel. Just shy of ten-miles, the road turns to the right for a steep descent. Overall, the way down is a super technical downhill with lots of rock obstacles and downed trees to navigate. Closer to the bottom, the trail smooths back to more of a gravel road.
