Description
Just south/west of the bridge under 112th Street, there are two side paths on the south side of the trail. The second of these is the Cotton Creek Trail, which climbs through a neighborhood past a small sometimes-creek to empty out at the Legacy Ridge Golf Course. On the other side of the street is the Farmers Highline Canal Trail near Windsor Park. While this trail isn't something I'd go out of my way to visit, it makes a lot of nice loops possible between the two major artery trails in Westminster.
