Description
A commbination of the
red and blue trails in the forest. Trails are composed soley of sand, and most of that is very soft sand. Not very pleasant and many horses to dodge. Cut my trip early to escape.

Directions to Hike
From Champaign: Take
74 west to 136. Take 136 west until just before Havana and then take
Mason County Road 2800 East. This will lead to the park.
Alternatively, take 74 west to Peoria and hit the 474. This will lead to a turn off for Pekin and Route 29. After some town driving, this will lead to Manito Road. make a right and follow until you hit Mason County Road 2500 North. This is barely marked so watch out. Make a right. This leads to the forest.
