The sun was back with a vengeance today, but thankfully I discovered Folly Lick Park.
It's not easy to find. Google Maps took me into the middle of a residential neighborhood and told me I'd arrived, despite no entrance to the park. I had to backtrack until eventually I found a small patch of gravel about wide enough to fit two vehicles, and a small trail entrance.
The park itself is a large strip of woods with a paved walking trail about 5 feet wide. There appears to be basically one main trail that winds through the park next to a stream that more or less divides the park in half lengthwise, with a couple of other trails branching off the main path.
It's a pleasant place, mostly flat and easy to hike. And despite hiking on a Sunday afternoon, I only encountered a handful of other people.
