About This Trail

Imported description

The road to road to the parking lot is closing due to winter weather. This will add some mileage to the Hike. It involves a trail going to a fire tower. "If the weather is rainy, the tower may not be accessible." The lawn around the fire tower is pleasant though you are not permitted to drink there while it is not on fire.
