Description

The trail starts at the entrance of the park where you are quickly introduced to a steep hill climb. After a couple dips and climbs, the terrain levels out as the trail nears the main road. The terrain is a mixture of rounded granite pebbles, sand, grass prairie, and compressed dirt.

Flora & Fauna

You can expect to see whitetail deer, lizards, snakes, and the occasional grey fox and coyote.
