    Beautiful! Enjoyed seeing the mountain laurel and 7 deer. Very peaceful there.

    Beautiful area. It's has nice camp spots along some trails, the campsites are big and look to be maintained good. The woods itself are lush and full of life. There's a reservoir with a runoff waterfall into a little valley, that's definitely worth checking out while your there. Always end up passing friendly backpackers on trails, with friendly little conversations. It's a great place all around

    Best place to take a hike and enjoy the outdoors, whether it's a walk around the park or having a picnic along the water. You can go camping, swimming, hiking, enjoying the nature, n I have been going there since I was a kid. Excellent place to be n explore ❣️❣️❣️

    Nice time hiking looking for morels today. I can't say where they are but I have found where they are not lol.
    I ran into nobody in the woods which was my plan. If you want to hike with people there are many trails where I saw many people today. I went off trail and had a nice peaceful day.
