Pocahontas Trail #263

Dogs Off-leash

E-Bikes Not Allowed

This is a long trail. Some sections are in good shape (Nature Center to intersection with Fork Mountain Trail - East Section and from intersection with Frosty Gap #235 trail to Eagle Camp Trail #259) as of Sept, 2017, while other sections are abandoned due to horse damage.

The section West of intersection with Frost Gap tend to be soggy, muddy bogs, one is 700 ft long. There are quite a few of these portions, and they can make the trail a negative user experience. Elsewhere, the trail surface is maintained. You can bypass most of the mud bogs via FSR 77, but there will be some brush heading West from the Frosty Gap intersection.

There is a horse camp near the Western end of the trail (above Summit Lake). That's where most of the mud bugs are. 20 mud bogs there, one is 700 feet long.
