Comments, Notes: There has been many changes to this park. We tried to find where the north trail was and even ask the guy that was mowing and he had no clue where to direct us. I plan to return to this location. Researching this further has given me a little more info to work with. The information provided here will at least get you there. Again I have to return and check it out myself.
