Description
As the name implies it is a bird sanctuary with many trails mostly of the easy variety this does make it a good place to go trail running. Good birding can be done here as well as great X-crounrty skiing in the winter. I have hiked, run, biked (illegally) here for over twenty years and have always seen something new. It is a beautiful place that though not big has alot to offer.
