Description

Pretty flowy trail that is largely sandy or rocky hardpack with occasional dips through narrow sandy cuts. Leads from Rasmussen Road Extended (8112) and No Fees to The Death Star Trench or Escape from The Empire. Escape from The Empire is a more natural continuation of the same terrain.

Stay right while heading north here on Anakin to Darth Vader to avoid the slight jog in No Fees, and avoid any confusion about private inholding access to the west.
