Amazing place to take kids . Rock slide and hiking is amazing. The facilities are clean . The park and picnic areas for families.
I'm a sucker for a scramble, so naturally I loved the hike through the chasm. We walked over to little purgatory loop and found the tree that must have grown its roots out sideways over the flat...
Super fun , lots of rocks so make sure you wear the right sneakers. This place is pretty beautiful and majestical ngllll
It was such an amazing trail and scenery! Definitely wear good shoes that can handle the rocks you walk over and around. Paths are clearly marked and easy to follow
