Mike, you ought to try that short track. Its an enjoyable little hike that takes one off the beaten path and has some interesting points of interest. Even getting lost out there is kinda fun. The map is a good one if you know how to read it. In my previous post I think, out of an abundance of caution, I may have made it sound more challenging than it really is. The critical point on the way in is where that old road takes that right hand turn. If you go straight there, you'll do fine. The critical point on the way out is right after re-crossing the stream at the old bridge. The left hand turn onto the track is almost immediately after you make that crossing. Basically, if you find yourself still on a good road five minutes after crossing the stream, turn around and go back to the bridge.
Conservative estimate for time on that hike for a straight shot with no rests or stops for deciding which way to go would be an hour or so. Its a great lunch destination, pleasant and peaceful.
