A lot of history here and walking down by the river looking at the old structures was neat.
I wish I would've chosen a cooler day. I have retreated for now, but I will be back. Fun find in my neighborhood of over 10 years. Thanks google maps>attractions.
Hiking and exploring was great. Found an old one gallon coca cola syrup jug while down on the river bank. Was an interesting find. Also found a really great fishing hole with some massive catfish. Definitely gonna have to do some more exploring when I go back.
The river walk and grand staircase are really cool and the pathways are well maintained. There are picnic tables along the trail and you get the impression of being secluded without having to drive to far which is a plus. The parking is a little confusing, but aside from that it is a wonderful afternoon destination.
This was so historical and awesomely beautiful!
