    Has been awhile since I went down to the gate at Emerald Bay. Due to the road washing away in a couple of spots, the road has pretty much turned to singletract. It is one of the flatest easiest singletracts in Laguna Wilderness Park. Many people come down Trail 13 (Old Emerald) and climb back out. We need to ride this section as it is closing in and becoming a major bushwacking.

    Dean,

    So, if you go down the Old Emerald ST and hang a left, is the section you guys are speaking of? When we do the OE ST we always hang a right and climb out. Or is it the ST that you can take back to the LCWP parking lot after coming down T & A?
