From the Sims Creek Overlook Parking Area, the trail starts in a mess of both orange and pale jewelweed as you can see from the above photo. This spur trail accesses the Green Knob loop trail at the creek right below the Parkway. The trail crosses some meadows but is in the woods for the majority of time. It is in need of considerable maintenance. There are many washed out spots that have stripped the top soil down to the slick earth below.
Pale Jewelweed
The meadow are pretty and sport some nice wildflowers but you do have to hike over some slick spots to get there.
