Description

Machine-built intermediate trail dropping from the South Bench to Big Buffalo Creek. This is a very fast, beautiful descent clinging to the side of the bluff and then following the creek as it drops down to the Buffalo Creek and the Buffalo Creek Trail. The Southern Slide connects the South Bench to the Buffalo Creek trails.
