“An extension of Poverty Creek, this trail does not follow the creek but climbs out of the valley instead. ”

Description

This is a much steeper section than the first section of Poverty Creek. Watch out for downed trees as this section, while well-used, doesn't see nearly as much traffic as other trails in the Pandapas/!Poverty Creek area. Overall, this trail has a relatively smooth tread with a few loose or rough corners.
