Trail marking: Very good
Trail grooming: Very good
Rating: 4.5 stars
What I liked: the pines
What I disliked: The trail pass. Isnt it enough that we pay for a state park sticker? First our car, now our feet.
Comments: If there is going to be a trail pass, it needs to be advertised better. There needs to be a sign saying this a double fee area. then explain the two fees, instead of saying this is a fee area (singular). I almost got a fine beacause i did not know about the trail pass, only the state park sticker.
