Description

This machine built flow trail is accessed by beginning at the Fire Tower Loop Trail and descending about half way down to Knuckles Creek where it intersects with the Knucklehead Trail. It then continues along a bench back to Knuckles Creek Road Trail (FR 1476) at Signpost 27.

The Fire Tower Loop Trail can be completed by turning up FR 1476 at Signpost 27, climbing up to the Knuckles Creek Trailhead and further to the Fire Tower.
