The western half of the Zombie Trail is now complete and can be accessed from the Rock Hollow paved trail. Switchbacking you up through, under and around spectacular rock formations Zombie weaves in and out of multiple hollows and eventually leads you back to the pavement. This is the less gnarly side of Zombie and now contains a small jump line finishing with a huge rock tabletop.
