Reviews
Well I don’t understand or agree with the recent changes in hunting restrictions in the last 2 years. Seems like someone is slowly changing the access for their own benefit. This is a public tract and not for a targeted few.
I go there all the time an still haven’t finished all the trails!
tried to walk the complete perimeter of this trail but the blue trail seemed to just stop in the far corner. backtracked to where blue meets red, then continued on around to complete the walk. Conditions were ice, snow and mud here and there. dense piece of land. The dog and I covered about a mile and a half. Nice day, good exercise!
Nice close nature walk.
It’s close to my house and it’s easy access and parking
