  • i tried jogging around the lake in december of 2004. it was bigger than i thought. fortunately it was one of the warmer days. my sister and my nieces came to the rescue.
  • Warning: trails may be longer than they appear. The county has gone to some trouble to extend many trails out into a county wide a bike/hike network.
