This trail travels northeast from the Chipmunk Campground at the Beartree Recreation Area and connects to Whitetop Road. From near the entrance of the Chipmunk Campground, this trail steadily climbs up an old roadbed through a nice mix of forest and old fields. There is parking at the intersection with Whitetop Road.
