Strawberry Point, 11/7/12, 40/105
I have been here before (as the later
pictures will show) so I wasn't expecting to find anything new. I was
wrong. I found a spring, and the caves that it formed. This is a big
park with all the standard stuff: camping, playgrounds, plenty of
hiking. My favorite part to hike is called The Backbone Trail. It is
basically on a cliff but is wide enough to be safe as long as you are
not being stupid. Throughout this
trail are the remnants of the limestone
(which formed the caves below) poking up with gaps in between them.
It looks like you are walking along the spine of some gigantic
creature. During a past visit, I was on The Backbone at Dusk when I
heard coyotes or wolves calling. I didn't stay too long that time.
