28Cherry Hill Nature Preserve 2017. You can see the location on the GPS track I made during the "run".
29Cherry Hill Nature Preserve 2017. They needed a whole lot more boardwalk if they meant to keep peoples feet dry!
30Cherry Hill Nature Preserve 2017. The outside loop is a little over two miles. This shows 2.44 but I did the quick trip to the East entrance and also back to a clearing with a bench on the East side.
31 Not far from the entrance you are greeted by a pretty steep hill! You climb uphill almost the first mile.
32 Red is the uphill portion highlighted in prior screen capture.
Cherry Hill Nature Preserve on Cherry Hill Road outside of Ann Arbor Michigan. About 160 acres of hills, trees, swamps, and on the day I was there.... mud!
