Coppertone and I made a quick visit here before running some errands, so we did not manage to map all of the trails available here. That will require a separate visit. Based on the number of cars in the parking area and on the street I was half expecting to see hordes of people on the trails. Though busy, we didn't see multitudes as we expected. Based on a sign we saw, there may have been a cross country team practicing there at some point, though we never saw them. Saw a couple of deer very close to the trail who did not seem to give us half a thought. Very tame, perhaps too tame for their own good. The foothills here consist of gently rolling hills that make for pleasant going while still providing some interesting terrain.
