Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve
That was a beautiful hike. Just as the sun was on its way down. 🙂
Day and Night (1)
The Texas Tower.
Shoal Creek Greenbelt
I took a new route this year to Eeyore’s Birthday Party in Pease Park. I parked about two miles away and hiked in along the Shoal Creek Greenbelt. It was a nice walk and there were some fun sights to see along the way.
Caterpillar and Stuff
The trail had sunshine, wildflowers, and a caterpillar. Not too bad for a Sunday.
Cactus Flowers and Other Wildflowers
While hiking in Georgetown, there were flowers growing all alongside the trail. All were impressive after a rain storm, but I was most impressed with the flowers on the Cactus plants. I don’t see those too often.
Fields of Bluebonnets
The bluebonnets and blue skies are all over Central Texas now, so why not take some photos to share. 🙂
Copperfield Nature Trail
The Copperfield Nature Trail is about 3.5 miles of trail that runs along Walnut Creek on the East side of I35 in Austin. I started from Copperfield Park, and followed the trail as it bends along the Creek side. This trail is embedded in a few neighborhoods, so expect some street noise as you hike. This makes for a nice walk after work and before the sun sets.
Doeskin Ranch – Hike
Things are blooming and growing at the Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge. I hiked through several different zones on the outside loop trail, and there was much to see and photograph along the way.
Doeskin Ranch – Trail Map
If you are looking for a relatively easy and sunny hike just outside of Austin, Doeskin Ranch in the Balcones Canyonlands Natural Wildlife Refuge is a good spot. The three main trails form a loop that is about 3.5 miles long. At this time of year you will find a clear stream to cross, rolling hills to climb, and plenty of wildflowers to enjoy.
