SP Dolliver Memorial

 
Lehigh, 6/30/12 16/105

 
A big, hilly park. It was being utilized for many activities. I took a trail curving around a stone cliff. I really considered climbing here (it wasn't prohibited). But I was tired and still had another to find that day. On my way back to Des Moines a couple of weeks later, I stopped back here and did some actual hiking. I got a bit lost, but my internal GPS is improving; I picked the right direction to my car.

I believe this would be one of those that wouldn't officially count. This park seemed to be awkwardly laid out on the sides of a highway. Lots of plant life, and hiking opportunities. Although they were dead, it appeared that trees were growing out of the water. Even though it's weird, I found the water run-off to be an interesting feature of the park.
