Started our loop around 8.00 am from Red Town trailhead and went along indian trail. Took the shy bear trail junction - deceiver trail - going onto quarry trail around the shy bear pass and through coal creek falls trail and then cave hole trail, finishing with a small loop towards military road to back to the trailhead. We only saw few joggers on most of the trails - saw many people only on the coal creek trail. All through the trail was nice dense trees and well maintained trails. We saw three waterfalls, one along the Indian Trail, deceiver trail and the coal creek trail (this one was the best waterfalls, lots of great views). The trails had water on them at many places, but it was all mostly just flowing water and very shallow - so not really an issue.

A beautiful day for a hike! We did a lovely loop down Cave Hole Trail to Coal Creek Falls which is running really good right now, then from the Quarry trail we went over to the Indian Trail and took a look at Far Country Falls. The sun was hitting those falls just right and they are quite lovely with all the moss integrated in it. We checked out the Far Country Lookout, but with there being some trees in the way it really wasn't much of a view. Then we retraced our steps back up the Indian Trail to Red Town and headed back to the car. There's quite a bit of mud still going on, especially on Coal Creek trail but nothing crazy. We're trying to guess our mileage, maybe about 4 miles? It was perfect for our first hike of the year!

This is a loop series of trails about 7 miles long with about 1300 to 1500 feet of elevation gain/loss over a series of ups and downs. My first destination was Coal Creek Falls from the Sky Country Trail Head. The route to the falls had lots of folks with dogs and is a nice down hill walk for the most part. Not much water in Coal Creek and the falls were silent to my ears. Trees are leafy and grass is very high after a cool wet summer so not much in the way of views on any of the trails. From the falls I headed to De Leo Wall via the Marshall Hill trail, on parts of the trail you could see a sharp drop off but no real views due to foliage. All the trails are in good shape with no mud. As most of my hiking in the area has been in fall/winter/spring this was a welcome change. I passed Far Country falls but again could not see or hear the falls from the trail. The rest of the walk was a nice amble through a shady green forest. Weather the last two Sunday's has been muggy and warm so I am glad I took extra water with me.

This loop of trails made 5 miles. The trails are in great shape - a bit of mud here and there, but easy to get around. Coal Creek Falls was full of water. Lots of Bleeding Hearts along the trail as well as other flowers I don't know the names of.
