Dense hardwood forest and long-distance views of this sparsely developed valley give a feeling of remoteness. 17 miles of hiking trails with several loops, the shortest about 3 miles. Rugged; steep hills and valleys. Wild turkeys can be heard gobbling on spring mornings and occasionally during summer. Trout fishing in Hay Creek. Good fall color. Picnic area. Map available from DNR.
