The other, to the east of Sweetwater Creek, is undeveloped, although there are a couple of dirt tracks.Since there is limited parking available, we will meet at the Nature Trails parking lot and carpool a short distance.

At least two quarts of water. Bug repellent. Bring suitable footwear, since we may have to ford a creek.\.
