This trail is the bypass around the famous rock garden known as the Bone Garden on 3N69 - Gold Mountain. This trail is easier than the rock garden, but the rock garden isn't the hardest part of the 3N69 by any means. Meaning this is simply a shorter route and has no other benefits outside of finishing the trail faster. There are no campsites on this short bypass. If you are looking for camping, refer to the 3N69 - Gold Mountain.
