Description

Enter from the parking lot or from Rinaldi. Bear right at the fork at 0.25 mile. There is a lovely shaded oak segment shortly after that. Bear left at the T at 1.1 miles. There are several side trails up to nearby streets so just keep an eye out. The creek through the park is seasonal.

Flora & Fauna

Oak, and grassland. Rabbits and lizards are common. Rattlesnakes have been seen on occasion.
