2. Left onto Kingstream Drive, continuing for 1/3 mile.
3. Right onto an asphalt trail about 150 yards after the stop sign at Kingsvale Circle, continuing for about 300 yards downhill to a ford crossing of Sugarland Run.

7. Cross stream on wooden bridge.
8. Bear Left at a "Y" trail intersection about 50 yards after the bridge, and continue for about 1/2 mile, crossing the stream at a 3rd ford after about 75 yards, and crossing a smaller tributary stream again on a 4th ford after about another 300 yards.
9. Bear Right at "Y" about 250 yards after the 4th stream ford.

Reverse direction and return to start.
