TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail
reviewed by Rockinr on October 18, 2007
Great trail access from route 39 between Etowah and Tellico Plains follow Starr mountain sign. It is a tough 2.3 mile climb up the forrest road. As tough as Clemmer but it is forrest road so it is not bumpy. I tried the climb but pooped out after 1.5 MI. Its too much for me. You might want to park where the road T's 2.3 mi up if you can find a spot.* Review edited 10/21/2007
