"Honestly I was just looking for a trail to run my 1/10 scale trail trucks and found an awesome little spot to have some fun at. Trails are easy to follow and pretty open. Great fishing I'm told. Definitely goin back again."
"Lots of water. River was full, plus it had just rained, so trails were wet. Bring bug juice! We did not do the whole trail, but it looks mostly flat and short. Mile loop? They were putting in a new foot bridge."
