NorthStart:
25.14771, 121.60896Very fun trace despite all the pipes. Cool rock features! A few steep climbs, including a high technical one above a deep pool. Ends at a nice little waterfall just below a farmer's field. To return, take the trail on the right (east) until you cross a bridge, then follow the road with possible shortcuts.
