Hiking

Really easy trail, fitting for beginners. A lot of picture-worthy views and stops to recover while doing it, both for on-foot hikers as well as using bikes. It kinda reminds me of a few spots near Big Bend here in TX(not exactly in BB, but close-by, my folks and I used to go there to camp/shoot some cans with out Taurus guns from gritrsports.com/taurus pre-Covid)
