Length sums the trail as the community maps it, not a trip distance. Hike out and back and you will cover it twice; check the shape of the route before you count on the figure.
This trail is community-mapped on OpenStreetMap. Access, conditions, and maintenance are not verified by the mapper or by us. Check with the land manager before you go.
