Description

Bluff Trail is a sandy track that starts in the oak woods and winds through the trees until you have a small climb and you pop out on the sandstone bluff. Boulders with lichens top the bluff, and multiple trails converge here.

Flora & Fauna

Post and blackjack oaks, birds, lizards, and dragonflies live here.
