Bald Eagle is one the premier black diamond trails at Jake's Rocks. This trail features lots of rocks Rocks, rocks, rocks are the name of the game at Bald Eagle. There are many rock gardens and a few rock drops scattered throughout this trail.

Bald Eagle starts about halfway down Elijah Too and rejoins the same trail most of the way down to Longhouse Drive. The top of Bald Eagle is similar to Elijah Too but somewhat more rocky, it is a traverse to a scenic overlook where you can take a rest on some natural rock benches. After the scenic overlook, the descent begins! This trail will keep you on your toes, trying to find the flow through the rock gardens. About 2/3 of the way down keep an eye out for an optional rock slab drop to the left.

At the end of Bald Eagle you can continue down Elijah Too to Longhouse Drive or climb up Elijah Too to make your way back to the top of Elijah and back to the rest of the Jake's Rocks trails.
