Pg. 33 - Pilot Mountain State Park
       At 0.8 mile, the trail makes a right on a road. Stay on this road and don't look for that left back in the woods. At the "Y", stay left. New steps have been built and the trail is marked with blue and yellow circles. Toward the top, you'll pass a sign for Three Bears Gully on the right. Those are three rock formations which you'll access more easily on Ledge Spring Trail.

     Soon the trail gets steeper and rockier. The trail now has steps, banisters and metal cables keeping you on the trail. There is now no confusion as to where the trail is.
