As one of Nebraska's biggest cities, Omaha has its share of urban sprawl, but spend a little time in town and find museums, pleasant parks, plenty of places to tuck into for an Omaha steak and somewhat unexpectedly, an indoor rainforest.
From the Pioneer Pass Trailhead, the trail goes east, drops and crosses the creek, then climbs for the first 1,000 feet while following an old jeep road along a fence-line. Where the road ends, East Mountain Trail 214 turns northeast and begins a long gradual climb up to a saddle, then levels off as it follows a contour along the east side of the next peak. The trail enters Dead Tree Saddle, an area of downed trees damaged by strong winds. It then follows the ridge along the west face of East Mountain. At mile 2.1 the trail starts down the west side of the peak via a series of switchbacks, passing Bear Paw Spring, finally descending back down to Pinal Creek. At mile 3.7, the trail junctions with the Tollroad Trail 200 heading north. Continue east on East Mountain Trail 214 for a short distance to the end at Forest Road (FR) 112.
