  • The park itself is very beautiful, but the roads are still very washed out and, in some places, one cannot pass without rubber boots. A lot of people walk along the trails, someone alone, not afraid.....  more

  • Our visit was a quick stop on the way to Mount Humunum, but there are great hiking trails and historical perspective on the historic quick silver mercury production from 1847-1976.

  • We were looking for wildflowers and found 1 of the trail here has beautiful wildflowers view so came straight here. This is very beautiful place (even though we didn't get to see wildflowers, I think we missed the correct trail). There are a few trails here in the woods (easy to moderate) but all are so beautiful and trees everywhere. We were here for an hour or two. We will definitely visit again. The parking lot is huge and free parking and entry.
  • Beautiful trail, a lot of different length options so you can do a really long hike, or take a shorter loop depending on how much time you have. Parking wasn't too crowded and it was free. Not much shade so not sure that i would recommend it in the summer, but the temperature was perfect in the winter
