Beautiful start alongside the creek with the ruined cabin nearby. This is a special place.

Mostly a decent flat trail that has a nice pond and pretty little stream running along it on the Crooked lake end. But there are a few short ups & downs. Also the ever present protruding root or rock. The dilapidated remains of an old trappers cabin are located near the Crooked lake end.
