Soggy Trails due to Rainy Summer.
Due to recent heavy rains in the area, several trail sections are experiencing soggy, wet or flooded conditions. Check in with park staff at the visitor center or marina store upon arrival to learn which trails are the driest. Areas along State Park Road may also have water standing on the roadway, especially during heavy rain events. Please drive carefully and slowly through any standing water on roadways.
