"This short trail starts in the parking lot of the elementary school. There is an #OutdoorClassroom, #VernalPonds, and #swale. Small bridges have been built over wet areas. There are small signs with information about the natural environment. Although there are blue blazes on trees, the trail is not easy to follow as it gets further from the school."
