Difficulty: Difficult
Length: 13.9 miles / 22 km
Duration: Half day
 
Overview: The trail is steep and rough at times so this is only for experienced hikers. From its start on Waites Run, this circuit climbs some 1300+ feet at times on a steep and rough footway, for about 2 miles along Pond Run. Then the trail takes a side trip to an old fire tower site on Halfmoon Lookout where the views are nothing short of spectacular!
