Comment: This is a newly constructed site, that still needs some work before completion. At the time of the survey there were tread obstacles where the pavement ended to access the picnic tables. An accessible route to the second sheltered picnic table still needs to be constructed from the main paved path. Also the ground around the first accessible table needs leveling and some dirt needs to be removed to make sure the table is at an appropriate height.
