Description

This is a wide and rocky fire road with a beautiful overlook from below the summit of Little Yellow Mountain Peak. It does offer some of the more prolonged climbs in the park and some mild rock gardens. When pointing downhill, it's very easy to carry speed. But as with everywhere in this park, please keep your speed in-check and be polite to other trail users. The rocky terrain can be very loose, making it extremely difficult to slow down quickly.
