Description:
This trail is accessible from Catclaw Trail, or from the north end of the quarry in Quarry Bay. Big bluestem, little bluestem, Indiangrass, and other native grasses dominate the landscape as it changes from upland prairie to low woodlands. Here, you can often hear native animals such as owls and coyotes in the evenings. This trail joins the Corps of Engineers trail on the northern point. The additional miles of trails provide hiker and bikers opportunities outside the state park. Users can expect moderate difficulty traversing this trail.
