Wooded ravines, creekside trails and shale outcrops along Tinkers Creek offer intimate landscape, waterscape and birding shots. Best in spring for wildflowers and migratory birds, and in fall for color. Visit at dawn or late afternoon for soft light and fewer people. Small free parking; trails are mostly easy but can be muddy after rain. No permit required.
