About This Trail

Imported description

The road, called Walk in the woods, has a link to TR206 and TR200, as well as to the north. The hike is a good one even though there is little water during heavy rain. It's mostly a good hike for getting to where you want to go. The pine beetle's effects on the trees make for a noticeable decrease in hiking times, but this does not affect hiking time at all. It isn't a good experience to do it on horseback. Make sure you bring the dog with you because this trail only allows horses and horse drawn wagons.
