The trail climbs in short bursts for 1.5 miles almost to the park’s high point on a brushy ridge overlooking the valley. Then it drops quickly. At 2.5 miles from the start, continue past a post marking Junction 8 (a shortcut back, called Arrowleaf Ridge Trail) as the Big Sky Loop contours over to a bench before dropping again. Check out the short Penstemon Point Loop at the Junction 7 marker.

At Junction 6, bear left on the double-track for a short way, and then turn right onto the single-track at Junction 5. At Junction 4, continue straight as the Big Sky Loop bends into a lusher area with cedars.

Soon the trail bears left and heads down to the campground. Turn left on the campground road, and then turn left on the old highway and follow the pavement back to your car.
