For those who wish to take their time, dawdle, look closely at nature and, perhaps, even learn a little along the way! We begin along a fire trail that is relatively flat before heading downhill into different terrain and vegetation. The return is a repeat but this time, look at the other side of the track! It's amazing what one sees when doing that. One of a series along the same theme!
