The Long Prairie Path has some shade but as the name implies, it's prairie so bring a hat and sunscreen.

State Road 173 Hell to the Long Prarie Path Trail Head
The worst part of the ride is State Road 173. There is a shoulder that you can ride of that disappears. There are trucks going in both directions in a steady stream. The shoulder is rocky and mostly impossible to ride on. Don't give up. It's only a 15-20 minute walk to County Line Road and the trail head.
