The sun breaks were brief and the blue sky patchy but still! It was a windy walk today. Started at gate on FR 800 but took the left fork after the first creek crossing (the culvert, not the bridge). This road (FR811) goes up a steep hill and forks toward the end. If you take the left fork, you'll run in to Alpha Trail. If you bear right, you'll follow a newer (perhaps unnumbered) forest road that peters out at a dead end roughly a mile farther on. It was this newer road that I walked today.
The route pictured here is approximate, drawn from memory, the terrain view, and guessing. Maybe someday I'll get a GPS unit to learn where some of these routes really are. For sure, you can expect another steep climb on the way back as this route takes you to the bottom of a deep ravine. A very nice out and back for roughly 2.5 miles and practically no company even when other trails are busy.
