Description

This is a decently technical descent off the first ridge and a somewhat technical climb to the second ridge. It's not terribly steep, but a good amount of technical rock features.

Use this trail to connect the Mt. Union Parking area trails to the remainder of Moraine State Park.

This trail leads you to the first major "T" in the trails by the Powerline. Turning right is a fast and flowy downhill, while left leads you over towards the second "T."
