in the last weekI hiked the trails here many times and I saw hemlock falls. The way to get there is a long walk, but it's so beautiful when it rains, it's so peaceful and quiet and you can see many birds. I went with some family to the water reservoir and it's about 2 miles around the lake. I saw a snake bird, a turtle, and a bunch of fish that kept rising to the surface. I'd like to explore more of what this place has to offer. At some point, you can see a water fountain on the left, and a waterfall to your right. And at just the right angle, the fountain shows a rainbow during the day. Would come back here again.
