Wooded trailhead leading to ridge overlooks, springs and seasonal creeks — great for forest detail, stream long exposures, fall color and golden-hour ridge panoramas. Trailhead offers free parking on E McNelly Rd; no entry fee. Best in spring for blooms and after dry spell for clear streams, or autumn for foliage. Weekday mornings reduce hikers; trails can be muddy after rain and are moderate in grade.
