Picked this trail for hiking today after looking at tons of places and photos. I choose it because it seemed to have a lot of water access points along the path which is good for dog walking in hot weather so he can dip his legs in and cool down every so often while on hike. But got here and saw this sign so didn’t go on the hike after all, went elsewhere. Wish it had said this on the google page for the hike so I could’ve avoided driving 40 minutes here
