Red Trail.
This 0.1-mile connector is one of the shortest marked routes in the Park, likely serving as a link between trailheads, parking areas, or longer trail segments. At roughly 500 feet, it's over in a minute or two of walking. Check local trail maps to see what it connects—often these brief spurs provide access rather than stand as destinations themselves.
