  Very nice Scenic Overlook area. Enjoyed the nice country Drive getting there also. They have some type of a nature center there but I did not go inside I think it was closed. I did see lots of people hiking. I'd like to check this place out during the summer time next year. I posted some photos.please smash that thumbs-up button if my review was helpful. Also click the thumbs up on each of the photos that you liked.
