    Great out and back trail that can be combined with other trails and roads to be a loop or figure 8. Open sunny at parts but then damp in low creek areas. Trail is well maintained and well marked. Leads out to the John Muir Overlook along Chestnut Ridge but my boys did not make it that far out. There are other sections of the John Muir that you can mountain bike in the BSF.
