This road is awesome for Motorcycling if you can keep your eyes on the road. The several overlooks are magnets for picture taking and leaf watching. Definitely worth the trip.
3. Honeycomb Rocks Trail
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2 reviews
This .25 mile accessible trail offers close-up views of world class hematite deposits. The honeycomb rocks were slowly shaped and folded during the mountain building that occurred thousands of years ago. This easy and relatively flat trail is a great place to get out of the car with the whole family to learn about these unique rock formations.
