Although this paved multi-use trail is popularly known as the Bird to Gird Trail, it actually extends farther went that Bird, starting here near the small community of Indian. If you were to run out and back along the whole length of the trail, it'd be roughly equivalent to a marathon — if marathons came with dramatic mountains on one side and sweeping views across the waters of Turnagain Arm on the other.
