If you enter from Longbow head north and this tree is just across the creek. Keep going Northeast to get to the Volcanic overlook. [Blunn Creek Preserve]

There's more than meets the eye here. When you get north of the park, your on an old moto cross track. Head toward Wm. Cannon while staying to the west. Some interesting junkartwork is stationed around the trails. Also an old trail heads west and links up with the creek eventually running under Brodie lane.

The artist left his link: (guess everyone has a myspace or flickr site:)

Cross the creek to the south side and explore miles of bike trails. The horse flies will take the fun out of it soon.

Lots more trails out there!

This is a great area because you can find more trails every time you go. Try the side paths and you will be treated to miles of lesser known trails which converge on Travis Countries power lines. West of the power lines the bike trails go through some of the prettiest scenery on the greenbelt. This may be the best area to find seclusion at a time when literally hundreds of people are at the creek. I hope this area never gets developed!

Surprising oasis.

I never knew this gem was here. The bluebonnets are in bloom which made this hike even more beautiful. The kids love it and call it Jurrasic Park because of the Volcano intrigue. The huge Oak tree on the west side of the preserve is also a must see.
