About This Trail

Imported description

The wild landscape was once used for military training. The landscape is beautiful but the trails are not kept up. Some of the trails are composed of old wagon roads. It is a beautiful place to visit in the spring, when the wildflowers are in bloom and the rattlesnakes are still underground.
