Miles Hiked: 4.50 Miles  Elapsed Time: N/A

Comments: Trails are well marked. Walked trails #2 & #3. Nice view of the river and distant hills from the bluff. Not as 'rugged' as the park map says at the bluff area. Saw deer, millions of grasshoppers, and strangely enough, several huge Walking Sticks (stickbugs) crossing over the path ranging from 4"-6" long. Cactus' were blooming. Temp was hot--upper 90's--I gotta start hiking these earlier in the morning. :-) When we finished hiking, we drove to the swimming area and cooled off in the Guadalupe River. :-)
