4 miles and 2 loops complete, in a figure 8, with a connector to existing double track completed. Going CCW the trail takes 3 passes parallel to the stream, moving up the hill each time. The 3rd one is quite rocky ("Rocky Top", (bench cut) but doable. After that it wanders through a cedar grove (aka "the Cedar Maze"), back to the start, or hang a R b4 exit and climb back up for a 1/2 mile, and loop back down on some nice singletrack. The good people at Earthriders.org/Urban Trail Co. have work days through the Fall/Winter/Spring. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
