Glacier Ridge hike

Today I took a 2.2 mile walk through Glacier Ridge Metropark.  I'll add more in a bit.  I'm a little busy right now, so hopefully later this evening I'll get to the commentary.


This windmill provides some of the power for the park.


It's hard to see, but there is an old truck in the woods.  It is the former site of the Engine Geocache.


Zoomed in on the truck.


A pic of the trail, and a little bit of the wetland area.


Looking at some of the woods.


The trail, leading into the woods.

Looking back toward the parking area.  There is a small pavilion, a playground, and a few picnic tables here.


The aerial view.


The TOPO view.


The elevation profile.  As you can see it's a fairly level walk.  The highest point being 1018', the lowest 983'.
