The trail is one that I frequently walk with my geodog "Mandy" (TB# TBH8KT). It is a popular area to walk dogs so there are always new furry friends to meet. The area is also home to a variety of wildlife (over 300 species), so bring your camera and binoculars. Make sure you take time to "paws" and enjoy the beauty of South Platte Park.
If you have time you might want to stop in at the Carson Nature Center to see some interesting nature displays. Also, if you enjoy bird watching they have a list of birds that are seen in the park. You can access the website for the center at http://www.sspr.org/nature
