This is the shorter, more direct of two trails leading south to Trigg Tower, an abandoned fire watchtower that has been repurposed into a lookout tower. It's the last remaining fire tower in Shawnee National Forest, and there is a manmade pond at this intersection that (in theory) has water year-round.
