Description

This short trail is a fast and flowy downhill or a rideable but punchy uphill. It is best used to connect from the Knucklehead Trail West (UBMBTS Signposts 26) or the Fire Tower Trail (Signpost 27) to the bottom of the Azalea Falls Trail (Signpost 23) in order to avoid creek crossings at the bottom section of the Knuckles Creek Road between Signposts 26 and 24.

Access the trail from the top at Signpost 25 or at the bottom at Signpost 23.
