A hidden gem in Atlanta. Perhaps the most unique walk you can take. Fascinating in any weather, but on a gray day the sky and the rock merge into a surreal wonderland.

25 degrees, but not too much wind. A pretty 3.8 mile hike including time on the “beach” along a partially-drained reservoir. Lots of birds and other wildlife to be found.



Short little hike around a man-made 54-acre reservoir. One of the many branches of the Little Patuxent River, a water system that defines much of the character of central Maryland (and provides numerous good hikes) before emptying into the Chesapeake Bay. Nothing majestic but a great little piece of nature hidden inside suburbia.
Used to love this place as a kid. Was fun to come back and spend a few hours. Only regret is the river rafting isn’t operational this time of year.
