Description

This trail follows a pink blaze.

The section of this trail from Wilson Cove Trail (1014) to Racer Camp Hollow (1036) is muddy in the spring. The portion from Wilson Cove Rd to Racer Camp Hollow (1036) is a loose rocky singletrack climb/descent through pines and deciduous forest towards Little Sluice Mountain.

This is easier as a climb when compared to Racer Camp Hollow (1036) to get back to the ridge.
