Description
Rolling hills - wooded area passing open fields. sand / dirt trail well marked. this is a great hidden gym, easy hiking, very diverse wildlife. saw everything from deer to wood peckers to CACTUS! highly recomended, remote yet easy to find. Bugs and ticks were thick. Would recomend ear plugs for sleeping in as there are A LOT of birds!

Directions to Hike
