Description

This trail starts as a wide dirt fire road through a large meadow where many turkeys and deer can be seen. Cross over the road briefly and cross a small bridge to remain on the trail. This trail goes along the side of the service road. Eventually, it meets up with the road again near the farm.

Flora & Fauna

Lots of wild turkeys and deer can be seen along here.
