Trail-Head

Description


A short distance down this trail is currently under several feet of water - The Spring storms have taken the lake/creek near our home 25+ feet over average. The Army Corps of Engineers is predicting that the water will recede off the trails in the next 90 - 120 days. After several years of drought is has been crazy this year!

It is something the way that nature works.. Drought, want rain, ok, a deluge. This looks like it would be such a beautiful place to take a walk. Love the curves of the path, the way it adds depth. Love that lighting. the colors are gorgeous, have a boldness to them without affecting the details. Take care Jeff. #11330366
