We drove up Rampart Range Road for what felt like quite awhile, and finally we were at the trailhead for Fern Creek. We figured it would be a quick trip down to the intersection with Long Hollow Road, and we were right.

For the most part, the trail was pretty smooth. There were a couple of places that had whoopdeedoos or small rocks, but otherwise it was mellow. We stopped at the intersection with 347.C to stretch our legs and visit, but then we were off again to find Illinois Gulch.
