Hell Hole is a relatively short trail for the long drive, but well worth the trip.
The trail is steep and narrow with little opportunity to pass. The trail begins
to the North and works its way East down to the reservoir, increasing in
difficulty. Keep in mind that you will need to return the same way you came.
If the trail becomes to difficult turn back before having to return back up the
same tough obstacles.
The trail lets out on the shore of the reservoir in a fairly secluded location.
Depending on the level of the reservoir there are additional difficult
challenges in exploring the shoreline. Camping is allowed along the shore
of the reservoir, so bring your fishing pole or kayak and make a weekend out
of it!
