Description

From Road #286D, this trail bends eastward, through sparse conifers. Though strewn with rocks, the trail actually ridees quite well and only has a couple difficult moves. Eventually, and after one fun rock garden feature, the trail drops to an intersection with Saddle Trail East #842 and Saddle Trail Loop #840.
