Roy Park Preserve (February 2017)

The Roy Park Park (actually it's a Nature Preserve) is off of Irish Settlement Road and has hiking trails that go down to Six Mile Creek. It was in the mid 60's (°F, pushing 20°C) up there, and in the 70's downtown on February 23, 2017, so I went hiking there with two friends, "Noky" and Tonya and their dog Milo. Since it was in the hills, there was still a little snow left. But it was getting pretty barren. Some photo highlights follow.

And here's a video of Six Mile Creek.
