This section of the Munsee-Eagle trail was built in 2018 by the Trail Conference Conservation Corps and volunteers. From either end the description is similar. It ascends about .4 of a mile to reach its summit where it crosses under the power lines. At the power lines turn to the left and follow the road for about 100 feet before turning right. The trail then descend down to the fire road for a short ride to the other sections of the ME trail.
