Description
This is a doubletrack road beside a powerline that allows you to get to the picnic tables at the top of the powerline hill, which is an easy access point to all of the trails in the park that don't start in the parking lot. If you hike during the last hour before sunset, you can usually see several small herds of deer grazing on the grass on either side of the road.
