Description

Most of this segment of the interpretive Ted T. Turtle Trail is wide enough to travel abreast. The north end of the trail becomes quite soggy, but a view of the lake is worth the hike. It's not a beach... but there's plenty of beech trees along the way.

Flora & Fauna

Hardwood forest.
