Distance: 5.00 Miles Duration: N/A
A good trail, though the yellow trail markers are few and far between. I intended on hiking the smaller loop but took the bigger one by mistake. Still enjoyable. However, seeing the park borders as often as I did reminded me that, though there is no one around, one is not completely alone...hence the 4.5 on "Solitude". Wildlife: Many birds to see and the armadillos were everywhere!! In every clump of oak and juniper, there as a noisy little armored beast routing away at the soil and leaves...It's amazing they survive in the numbers they do being so aloof to possible "threats". Can't wait to explore the rest of the is park.
