Description

The flag line only uses approximately 500 feet of existing trail. In order to make this important connection on a more sustainable grade, the new trail incorporates switchbacks to climb higher on the side slope and connects back to the old trail bed just before rejoining Jarrett Creek road. This higher position provides great views into the valley.
